The river named as a Tsondab disappears in the west of the found in the Sande of a still the hottentot unknown in the hottentot, and I was very likely that this proprietary character of the waterfall has given the occasion to the name Tsondab '.

Der gewohnlich als Tsondab bezeichnete Fluss verschwindet im Westen des Fandes im Sande eines bis heute auch den Hottentotten unbekannten Diinengebietes, und ich halte für sehr wahrscheinlich, dass dieser eigenthiimliche Charakter des Wasserlaufs den Anlass zu dem Namen Tsondab gegeben hat'.

eng It is about the Cutting River, a water location on the river and the vlei, the Tsondabvlei, Very Walvis Bay. There are also other exchange forms. Here are all kinds of problems. Dove clearly struggles to hind the meaning and leaves Tson to Tsom- for a statement he gives and who joins the statements for eg. Tsumis 2317. Nama has a word Tsuni = 'Schmelzen' (Kr.- R. 1969 NW 389) which also pose possibilities, viz. That water 'melts', so about 'sinking-' or 'Sakrivier', with the lockǃ A-B = River. This leaves the -D unexplained. Krenz offers an acceptable way out. So maybe, as also at DEHL, 'Sandings River'? or 'Package River'? Notably that PNC has also treated the case Tsondab and then received no declaration of the meaning. VIEXAL IS THE OPERATED GENERAL SPELLING Here is left unchanged.

afr Dit gaan hier oor die versandende rivier, ’n waterplek aan die rivier en die vlei, die Tsondabvlei, distrik Walvisbaai. Daar is ook nog ander wisselvorme. Hier is allerlei probleme. Dove sukkel duidelik om die betekenis te agterhaal en vertrek Tson- tot tsom- vir 'n verklaring wat hy daar gee en wat aansluit by die verklarings vir bv. TSUMIS 2317 alwaar. Nama het ’n woord tsuni = 'schmelzen' (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 389) wat ook moontlikhede inhou, nl. dat die water daar 'wegsmelt', so ongeveer 'Wegsak-' of 'Sakrivier', met die slot ǃa-b = rivier. Dit laat die -d- onverklaar. Krenz bied daar ’n aanneemlike uitweg. Dus miskien, soos ook by Diehl, 'Versandingsrivier'? of 'Wegsakkingsrivier'? Opmerklik dat PNK ook die geval Tsondab behandel het en toe geen verklaring van die betekenis ontvang het nie. Wyselik is die oorgelêwerde algemene spelling hier darem onveranderd gelaat.
