ǂKharis
Our three entries in th a ** 661-2 apply one and the same place. On our older cards, k (h) aris, still waterfall / Wasserfall, and we could only approach the place and situated as a result. Dr Budack's communication enables us to locate it exactly. In addition, we find on SWA series 1968 sheet 2518 in this place the entry 'waterfall', a name translating and replaces the old Khoekhoense name, although the translation associative, such as Dr. Budack as a possibility, presents n.a.v. returns at Kreenley 1889 Wortschatz. We consider it more likely that 'waterfall' is lived in Nama Tkharis, as given by Rest 1960 DNW 72, 'Wasserfall: + Karis'. The translation is then made directly.

Budack KFR 1979 Letter 'Karis: A1 Three relates to T Kharis waterfall, a place in the Fish River with a waterfall located approximately 12 km west of the tar road at Tses. The term is likely to be related to ╪khari = Ausgleiten, Ausglitschen (Angles Stellen), see Kreenley 1889: 202. There are many smooth stones in the vicinity of the waterfall and one slipping easily, especially if they are wet

Budack KFR 1979 Brief 'Karis: A1 drie het betrekking op T Kharis Waterval, ’n plek in die Visrivier met ’n waterval wat ongeveer 12 km wes van die teerpad by Tses geleë is. Die term hou waarskynlik verband met ╪khari = ausgleiten, ausglitschen (an glatten Stellen), sien Kroenlein 1889:202. Daar is baie gladde klippe in die omgewing van die waterval en 'n mens gly maklik, veral as hulle nat is

Ons drie inskrywings in TH A** 661-2 geld een en dieselfde plek. Op ons ouer kaarte kom nog K(h)aris, nog Waterval/Wasserfall voor, en ons kon die plek net by benadering en as gevolg van 'n afleiding situeer. Dr Budack se mededeling stel ons in staat om dit presies te lokaliseer. Daarby vind ons op SWA-reeks 1968 vel 2518 Koes op hierdie plek die inskrywing 'Waterval', ’n naam wat die ou Khoekhoense naam vertaal en vervang, al is die vertaling assosiatief, soos dr Budack as 'n moontlikheid voorhou n.a.v. opgawes by Kroenlein 1889 Wortschatz. Ons ag dit waarskynliker dat 'waterval' gewoon in Nama Tkharis is, soos deur Rust 1960 DNW 72 aangegee word, 'Wasserfall: + karis'. Die vertaling is dan direk gemaak.
