Description
eng Not on maps of Hahn 1879 and Viongt 1893. Spreadbox gives it on the southern spits of the Nubibberge. District Maltahöhe. According to our measurement, this Aobis correlates with the farm 'Bergtop 102' on the Nubib, with the topographical range of 1973 sheet 2416 Mariental; This is west of Zwartmerm 101 of the Krikriekarte (a fulcrum), or southwest of the on-buoying Hammerstein 102. 'Bergtop' is finally a translation of Aobis, and it still displaced the old name. ǃ Ao-B = Height, Top, According to Krenz, cf. Aobehunis, or it is (with Patal I.P.V. cerebral skirt) such as Nama + au- [+ ao] = 'The Spitze Eines Berges. Der Gipfel, Topping '(Kr.- R. 1969 NW 35). The -bi- is spotless suffix.

afr Nie op kaarte van Hahn 1879 en Kiepert 1893 nie. Sprigade-Moisel gee dit aan op die suidelike spits van die Nubibberge. distrik Maltahöhe. Volgens ons meting korreleer hierdie Aobis met die plasie 'Bergtop 102' op die Nubib, met as grondslag die Topografiese reeks 1973 vel 2416 Mariental; dit le wes van Zwartmodder 101 van die Kriegskarte ('n steunpunt), of suidwestelik van die belendende Hammerstein 102. 'Bergtop' is klaarblvk- lik 'n vertaling van Aobis, en dit het die ou naam nog boonop verdring. ǃAo-b = hoogte, top, volgens Krenz, vgl. AOBEHUNIS, of dit is (met pa- latale i.p.v. serebrale klapslag) soos Nama +au- [ + ao-] = 'die Spitze eines Berges. der Gipfel, Topp' (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 35). Die -bi- is plekbe- noemende suffiks. Hierdie eerste lid vind ons weer in =bAunin vir lede van die Topnaarstam, met ╪ao = top gelyk te stel met die Ao- van die naam. Hieroor het Krenz FK 1978 Aantekening nou die volgende te se: 'lAobis, dit sal nie met die taalgebruik ooreenstem om dit met ‘Bergtoppe' te ver- tolk nie. Ek sou eerder aan ǃao = Bange, fürcht' dink. lAobis = ‘Stelle die man fiirchtetǃ'.' Dus 'Vreesplek'.
