Saraus is farm No. 16, north of Helmeringhausen and just in the district of Bethanien, on the main road. It occurs or the statements relating to a connection with (i) sara- = 'tie clay. Das Wander '(Kr.- R. 1969 NW 341), or (ii) Tsara = substance (Kr.-R. 380), descending on sound association. Those who understand it as 'without clothes / bare', hear the name as Sara OS (E), D.W.S. 'Clothes-without / clothes'. The question is still open or it means 'bare', 'Stoffontein' or something else.

Saraus is plaas nr 16, noord van Helmeringhausen en nog net in die distrik Bethanien, aan die hoofpad. Dit kom voor of die verklarings steun op 'n verband met (i) sara- = 'das Kleid. das Gewand' (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 341), of (ii) tsara- = stof (Kr.-R. 380), afgaande op klankassosiasie. Diegene wat dit begryp as 'sonder klere/kaal', hoor die naam as sara-os(e), d.w.s. 'klere-sonder/klereloos'. Die vraag is nog oop of dit beteken 'Kaal-', 'Stoffontein' of iets anders.
