Geiaub
Located right east of Keetmanshoop, in that district. Coordinates show that it is the current Gross AUB No. 44, D.W.S. The first member, Gei = large, was translated into German but the ground word, viz. ǀ Au- = fountain, is preserved. Note the more triple nomination in the time of the cricke, and then the hybrid form is still missing from today.

geleë reg oos van Keetmanshoop, in daardie distrik. koördinate wys uit dat dit die huidige Gross Aub nr 44 is, d.w.s. die eerste lid, Gei = groot, is in Duits vertaal maar die grondwoord, nl. ǀau- = fontein, is behoue. let op die nog drievoudige benoeming in die tyd van die Kriegskarte, en dan ontbreek nog die hibridiese vorm Gross Aub van vandag.
