You are surprised to find such a wide level there. That's exactly how it was the first Naman, which, as a result, exclaimed: Are there da Ra ╪gas = we (there) wonder to us (Are) about the area (╪gas).

Wer dorthin kommt, sieht sich auf einer HochFläche, die einen weiten Ausblick gestattet. Man wundert sich, dort eine so weite Ebene zu finden.
