afr Die informant is mnr Thimoteus ǀHara╪gaeb. Die verklaring is afkomstig van mnr Haacke. Dit spreek ons meer aan as die van ons segsliede in TH A** 804-805 waar die naam behandel is. Hulle bring dit daar in verband met jhunibome, 'n naam beginnende met 'n dentale schnalz, dus met ’n af- wykende suigklap van die lateraal wat deur die plaaslike Khoekhoense sprekers gebruik word. So ’n verdere fonetiese beswaar soos die verskil tussen die h- van ǀh-uni en die +k(h)- van die K(h)uni- in die pleknaam verval met die verbandlegging van die K(h)uni- van die pleknaam met ǀǀk(h)uni- = '(Von den Ameisen) zusammengetragener Rabassamen' (Kr.-R. 1969 NW 255). In tongslag en in die res van die klankkorpus be- vredig die nuwe verklaring heeltemal. Dit geld hier plaas Kunibes nr 88. Die morfeem -be- is 'n lokatief, die -s van die vr. ekv. sluit hierby aan.
