Umub

Farm No. 42, Dist. Bethanien. Like Nama ǀ U = Brak, and Mu-B = eye, at mu = see. Here 'Brakog'. However, Dr. Vedder goes out of Namaǃ U-Mu = 'Unver- Mischt, Lauter, Rein' (Kr.- R. 1969 NW 373), with the wrong suction consonant. The peripheral experts must be better informed by itself and their statement deserves the preference. The name is also applied to a mountain range (survey).

afr Plaas nr 42, dist. Bethanien. Soos Nama ǀu = brak, en mu-b = oog, by mu = sien. Hier 'Brakoog'. Dr Vedder gaan egter uit van Nama ǃu-mu = 'unver- mischt, lauter, rein' (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 373), met die verkeerde suigkonsonant. Die terplaatselike kenners moet vanself beter ingelig wees en hulle verklaring verdien die voorkeur. Die naam word ook op 'n bergreeks daar toegepas (Opmeting).
