ǀNorǀaub / ǀNoroǀaub
Nornaub, on Surveyor General's Map 1972 'Noronaub', Farm No. 71, east of Gibeon, District Mariental, was also a source, conclusion part (n) aU- like Nama ǀ Au- = Fountain preserves the fact in 1904. The -nau- was heard for ǀ Au-, the Noro- for ǀ Oro = Old, the name literally therefore 'Ouputs', 'Oufontein', in Nama Dan ǀ Oro- ǀ Au-B, as in first part of the recording What apparently based on more accurate observation and wanted to keep the common pronunciation. ǀ Oro - we have been teasing as means 'dry', in Nama ǀ Koro, thus with rimmed input (cf. O.A. Rest 1960 DNW 15). We must take into account the 'tragic' meaning of 'dry pits'.

Nornaub, on Surveyor General's Map 1972 'Noronaub', Farm No. 71, east of Gibeon, District Mariental, was also a source, conclusion part (n) aU- like Nama ǀ Au- = Fountain preserves the fact in 1904. The -nau- was heard for ǀ Au-, the Noro- for ǀ Oro = Old, the name literally therefore 'Ouputs', 'Oufontein', in Nama Dan ǀ Oro- ǀ Au-B, as in first part of the recording What apparently based on more accurate observation and wanted to keep the common pronunciation. ǀ Oro - we have been teasing as means 'dry', in Nama ǀ Koro, thus with rimmed input (cf.

Nornaub, op landmeter-generaal se kaart 1972 'Noronaub', plaas nr 71, ten ooste van Gibeon, distrik Mariental, was in 1904 ook ’n bron, slotdeel (n)au- soos Nama ǀau- = fontein bewaar die feit. Die -nau- is gehoor vir ǀau-, die Noro- vir ǀoro = ou, die naam letterlik dus 'Ouputs', 'Oufontein', in Nama dan ǀOro-ǀau-b, soos in eerste deel van die optekening wat klaarblyklik op noukeuriger waarneming berus en die gangbare uitspraak daarmee in ooreenstemming wou bring. ǀOro- het ons al teegekom as betekenende 'droog', in Nama ǀkoro, dus met velere inset (vgl. o.a. Rust 1960 DNW 15). Ons moet rekening hou met die 'tragiese' betekenis van 'droëputs'.
