Aninuis
Actually, 'feels', feel at ani- = (ostrich is usually ǀ Ami-), andǃ Nu-s = nest, viz. made a nest on the ground rather than in a tree (Kr.r. 1969 NW 306 'ǃ ostrich? Whether the -nui-S right is done as 'nest', we doubt, o.a. on phonetic grounds. One tends to look for a mortgage for the second part with the -ternuis of Aminuis, alright. This applies here farms Aninuis-Nord No 212 and member No. 214, Dist. Keetmanshoop.

Eintlik 'Voelnes', by ani- = voel (volstruis is gewoonlik ǀami-), en ǃnu-s = nes, nl. ’n nes op die grond gemaak eerder as in ’n boom (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 306 ' ǃnus = W: das direkt auf dem Boden liegende Vogelnest, auch das Hasen- nest'), vandaar miskien die gedagte aan die volstruis? Of die -nui-s reg ver- klaar is as 'nes', betwyfel ons, o.a. op fonetiese gronde. ’n Mens is geneig om vir die tweede deel ’n verband te soek met die -nuis van AMINUIS, alwaar. Dit geld hier plase Aninuis-Nord nr 212 en -Slid nr 214, dist. Keetmanshoop.
