Nubapis
Earlier, a plug and strain, but the name is not kept as farm name, not also in translated form. The entire meaning makes sure that the ingredients are: such as Nama Inaba- = rhino, and -bis orbes who also have place-nominant function. However, the vowel change of the first syllable, here is a new versus normal after, is little frequent, for 'rhino', it has been heard in Old Cape (cf. Hott 427-8). Nubapis is then an interconnection of Nababis, 'Renosterfontein'. It is south of Kalkrand but still west of the Grootfish River.

vroeër ’n suipplek en uitspanning, maar die naam is nie as plaasnaam bewaar nie, ook nie in vertaalde vorm nie. Die aangegewe betekenis maak dit seker dat die bestanddele die volgende is: soos Nama Inaba- = renoster, en -bis of -bes wat ook plekbenoemende funksie het. Die klinkerwisseling van die eerste lettergreep, hier 'n nu- teenoor die normale na-, is weinig frekwent, vir 'renoster' is dit egter al in Ou-Kaaps gehoor (vgl. HOTT 427-8). Nubapis is dan ’n wisselspelling van NABABIS, 'Renosterfontein'. Dit le ten suide van Kalkrand maar nog wes van die Grootvisrivier.
