Nuaos
For the component ǀ AOS K AUS 2616, the village right east of Liaideritz. The ╪NU = black. Also look the equivalent but elsewhere located Nuaub. Rightly noting is the pediatimological injection of the member ǀ AOS to -Haus in the name that was apparently circulating in Schultze's time, viz. Zwarthaus, the Black (Black-to-Horn) Afrikaans by way of translation, The -Haus German by way of adjusting, an Afrikaans-German name on a Nama understructure, which originally meant Swartfontein, Black Source.

Vir die komponent ǀaos k AUS 2616, die dorpie reg oos van liideritz. Die ╪nu = swart. Kyk verder die gelykbetekenende maar elders geleë NUAUB. Heel opmerklik is die volksetimologiese verduitsing van die lid ǀaos tot -haus in die naam wat in Schultze se tyd blykbaar in omloop was, nl. Zwarthaus, die Swart- (Zwart- by horn) Afrikaans by wyse van vertaling, die -haus Duits by wyse van aanpassing, ’n Afrikaans-Duitse naam op 'n Nama-onderstruktuur, wat oorspronklik beteken het Swartfontein, Swartbron.
