Khumib
This river runs with an elbow from the north with, eventually, a north-western rate to where he is on the coast of death to reach the sea. That point contributes to Dr Hartmann's name of Khumib Mund. We have no direct indication of the meaning of the river name, indirectly by the suffering of the suction medicine for the ground word. We assume the componentsǃ Khu + Mi + -B, the Genustration of the ML. EKV. What indicates a river name here. Theǃ Khu- is according to Kr.-r. 1969 NW 256 'to Schiessen, to Schlagen, Mit Steinen Werfen'. The -mi- is well as a morpheme, to take up a locative. The name may also keep a reminder of a fight or incident that has been lost today.

Hierdie rivier loop met ’n elmboog uit die noorde met, uiteindelik, ’n noordwestelike koers tot waar hy aan die Kus van die Dood die see be- hoort te bereik. Daardie punt dra by dr Hartmann die naam van Khumib Mund. Ons het geen regstreekse aanduiding van die betekenis van die riviernaam nie, onregstreeks wel deur die aangifte van die suigmedeklinker vir die grondwoord. Ons neem aan die komponente is ǃkhu + mi + -b, die genusteken van die ml. ekv. wat hier ’n riviernaam indiseer. Die ǃkhu- is volgens Kr.-R. 1969 NW 256 'tot schiessen, tot schlagen, mit Steinen werfen'. Die -mi- is wel as 'n morfeem, van 'n lokatief op te vat. Die naam bewaar dan miskien ’n herinnering aan ’n geveg of voorval wat vandag verlore geraak het.
