Aubes
It is about the meaning of Aubes, farm No 157, located at the Auob, now in Dist. Mariental, on S 2518 bb. We believe that the correct statement is the one listed as an alternative name by sprigade motisel, viz. 'Blutplatz', in connection with Nama ǀ AOB = 'tie blut' (with midden show), and not in connection with Nama = 'Bitter' (Spelling Kroenley), such as Jew and Leopert, all from later date. These probability statements are all pattern possibilities, and understandable. Also the efforts of Berger and Kotze go out of a ǀ au = source, although indirectly. The --bes is spot-noodly suffix, in the translation the 'platz', 'blood farm'. The reason for the name was lost, as far as we know.

Dit gaan hier oor die betekenis van Aubes, plaas nr 157, geleë aan die Auob, nou in dist. Mariental, op S 2518 BB. Ons meen dat die korrekte verklaring die een is wat as alternatiewe naam aangegee is deur Sprigade-Moisel, nl. 'Blutplatz', in aansluiting by Nama ǀaob = 'das Blut' (met middelhoe toon), en nie in aansluiting by Nama ǀ4u- = 'die Quelle' (met hoogstygende toon) nie, soos by Vedder, ook nie by ou = 'bitter' (spelling Kroenlein), soos by Jod en luipert nie, almal van later datum. Hierdie waarskynlikheidsverklarings is almal patroonmatige moontlikhede, en begryplik. Ook die pogings van Berger en Kotze gaan uit van ’n ǀau = bron, hoewel dan onregstreeks. Die -bes is plekbenoemende suffiks, in die vertaling die '-platz', 'Bloedplaas'. Die rede vir die naam het verlore geraak, sover ons weet.
