Xaibes

Farm No. 29, Dist. Windhoek. The juice thinks of Nama 11khai- = breast, but the spelling of hahn is clear as Nama Xai- = kudu (Rest 1960 DNW 37) and close for the ground to DEHL. The exit is to judge as the locative exit -bi- (s), to say that it is a place name, and the - that it was probably a fountain name, which has now passed on the farm. 'Koedepellek' or 'Koeduppontein'.

Description
eng Farm No. 29, Dist. Windhoek. The juice thinks of Nama 11khai- = breast, but the spelling of hahn is clear as Nama Xai- = kudu (Rest 1960 DNW 37) and close for the ground to DEHL.

afr Plaas nr 29, dist. Windhoek. Die SAP dink aan Nama 11khai- = bors, maar die spelling van Hahn is duidelik soos Nama xai- = koedoe (Rust 1960 DNW 37) en sluit vir die grondwoord aan by Diehl. Die uitgang is te beoordeel as die lokatiewe uitgang -bi-(s), om te se dat dit ’n pleknaam is, en die -s dat dit oorspronklik waarskynlik ’n fonteinnaam was, wat nou op die plaas oorgegaan het. 'Koedoeplek' of 'Koedoefontein'.
