Naidaus
The statement as at Kaiser (from Hobohm, farm owner,) and Krenz, with the suction consonant as already heard by Hartmann, which has links with Nama ǀǀ nae (thus with in-depth and not with middle tone as with the hill) = sing, namely . along with the dance. The -s also locates. 'Dance gate, plain, location', or 'sing port' etc. After rights, the dance and singing should be thought together, eg, as singing and dancing, d.w.s. The place name is to understand as 'sing-and-dance port'.

Description
eng
The statement as at Kaiser (from Hobohm, farm owner,) and Krenz, with the suction consonant as already heard by Hartmann, which has links with Nama ǀǀ nae (thus with in-depth and not with middle tone as with the hill) = sing, namely . along with the dance. The -s also locates. 'Dance gate, plain, location', or 'sing port' etc. After rights, the dance and singing should be thought together, eg, as singing and dancing, d.w.s. The place name is to understand as 'sing-and-dance port'.

Die verklaring wel soos by Kaiser (van Hobohm, plaaseienaar,) en Krenz, met die suigkonsonant soos reeds deur Hartmann gehoor, wat bande het met Nama ǀǀnae (dus met dieptoon en nie met middeltoon soos by Diehl nie) = sing, nl. saam met die dans. Die -s lokativeer ook. 'Danspoort, -vlakte, -plek', of 'Singpoort' ens. Na regte moet die dans en sing saam gedink word, bv, as sing-en-dans, d.w.s. die pleknaam is te verstaan as 'Sing-en-dans-poort'.
