Arandis, Orandis
The plant type is not reported. From the means at our disposal we could not identify it. Maybe someone wants to help with that. The -th indicates a place, the - definite that was a source / fountain here. Possibly it still exists. The change A and o in the first syllable, as here, is not uncommon (cf. Gama and Goma for 'Cattle / OS'). According to the map of the Surveyor General 1972 le the station in the district of Swakop- mund. It is now also the name for the new town of the Rossing urinary company. 'Across the station, 600 homes were built in the desert, and there will still be built so that 7,000 - 10,000 people can live' (Pastor Walter Moritz).

Die plantsoort word nie aangegee nie. Uit die middele tot ons beskikking kon ons dit nie identifiseer nie. Miskien wil iemand daarmee help. Die -dis dui ’n plek aan, die -s bepaaldelik dat hier ’n bron/fontein was. Moontlik bestaan dit nog. Die wisseling A- en O- in die eerste lettergreep, soos hier, is nie ongewoon nie (vgl. gama- en goma- vir 'bees/os'). Volgens die kaart van die landmeter-generaal 1972 le die stasie in die distrik Swakop- mund. Dit is nou ook die naam vir die nuwe dorp van die Rossing-Ura- niummaatskappy. 'Oorkant die stasie is 600 huise somaar in die woestyn gebou, en daar sal nog gebou word sodat daar later 7 000 - 10 000 mense kan woon' (pastor Walter Moritz).
