Tsams

The same general comment applies here than at Tsams 2416. What is coming is the attempt to connect with SAMS = mother breast, with the water-contained plant called the Tsamma, and with Lams for '' storage '. Here too, the question for the meaning is still open.

Description
eng The same general comment applies here than at Tsams 2416. What is coming is the attempt to connect with SAMS = mother breast, with the water-contained plant called the Tsamma, and with Lams for '' storage '. Here too, the question for the meaning is still open.
afr Dieselfde algemene opmerking geld hier as by TSAMS 2416. Wat bykom, is die poging tot verbandlegging met sams = moederbors, met die waterhoudende plant genoem die tsamma, en met lhams vir ’’opgaar'. Ook hier is die vraag na die betekenis nog oop.
