Description
eng This applies no 246 to the Oanob River, northern Rehoboth, and eastern Gamsberg. Gamsberg has found his name to a thorn tree, the Acacia Gansbergensis Schinz, for the difference n and m in the names, cf. Gams (mountain)), better known as the A. remembrance of the mountain world in the frost-free remedy In the farm name, with the exit -is = 'tie face ... the Oberfläche' (Kr.- R. 1969 NW 60) (currently spelled - AI-S], so about the 'place, actually the fountain ( -s) where there are mountain dorns (╪ nini-) in the plain / level (-e) 1966 CNSAP 567). Boise J 1979 Language Assistant note, however, consider the name Nineys as the ranging ruling of Niais, alriae, ie as consisting of ╪ ni- = 'black, hard stones', and ǀǀ Ae (s) = 'gather'.

afr Dit geld plaas nr 246 aan die Oanobrivier, noordelik van Rehoboth, en oostelik van Gamsberg. Gamsberg het sy naam geleën aan 'n doringboom- soort, die Acacia gansbergensis Schinz, vir die verskil n en m in die name, vgl. GAMS(BERG)), beter bekend as die A. hereroensis Engler. Dit is ’n tipiese verteenwoordiger van die bergwêreld in die rypvry Middellande, vgl. Wiss 1973 Botanische Mitt 4. Sy Namanaam is die ╪nini- (Ponnighaus 1931 Joernaal 6 15). Nineis 246 le in die gebied van die genoemde hakies- doringboom, die ╪ nini-, wat in die plaasnaam bewaar is, met die uitgang -eis = 'das Gesicht...die OberFläche' (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 60) (tans gespel - ai-s], so ongeveer die 'Plek, eintlik die fontein ( -s) waar daar bergdoring- bome (╪ nini-) in die vlakte/gelykte (-ei-) staan'. Die ander Afrikaanse volksname van die ╪ nini-b is haak-en-steek, rooi-. ook withaakdoring (Smith 1966 CNSAP 567). Boois J 1979 Taalassistent Aantekening beskou die naam Nineis egter as die wisseluitspraak van NIAIS, alwaar, d.w.s. as bestaande uit ╪ ni- = 'swart, harde klippe', en ǀǀae(s) = 'bymekaar'. Die 'Plek waar daar baie ╪ ni-klippe bymekaar le'.
