Description
eng Dagbreek, Farm No. 495 (not No. 497, 497 is for Langberg, apparently SWA series 1971 Skin 2014 Fransfontein) lies southwestern of Khorixas, capital of Damaraland, and south of Huab River. It looks like an alternate name of Neitigams, a water location to the Huab. cfg. Th a ** 886, but the first part is declared by Mr Krenz asǃ Nei (Ti) - [Inai (-DI)] for 'Giraffes', not as the name of a tree type ǀ Nai- here. Dommi = 'Kehle' (Rust 1960 DNW 34), also transfers eenvoerkanaal, also run / river.
afr Dagbreek, plaas nr 495 (nie nr 497 nie, 497 is vir langberg, blykens SWA- reeks 1971 vel 2014 Fransfontein) le suidwestelik van Khorixas, hoofstad van Damaraland, en suid van Huabrivier. Dit lyk na 'n wisselnaam van NEITIGAMS, ’n waterplek aan die Huab. vgl. TH A** 886, maar daar word die eerste deel deur mnr Krenz verklaar as ǃnei(ti)- [Inai(-di-)] vir 'kameelperde', nie as die naam van ’n boomsoort ǀnai- nie, soos hier. Dommi = 'Kehle' (Rust 1960 DNW 34), oordragtelik ook afvoerkanaal, ook lopie/rivier.
