Description
eng The writing makes it likely, the statement on the cricke mart makes it certain ('Gr.' What walks. On S 1913 D in the Kaokoveld is also a River AUB likely to be declared in the same way.
afr Die skryfwyse maak dit waarskynlik, die verklaring op die Kriegskarte maak dit seker ('Gr. Qu.' = Grosse Quelle) dat die rivier te verstaan is as ’n slingerende, smal riviertjie (-b), by ǀau- = bron, wat loop. Op S 1913 D in die Kaokoveld is ook ’n rivier Aub wat waarskynlik op dieselfde manier te verklaar is.
