In this linguistically thought-provoking book, readers will be guided through the origins of animal names and toponyms, from the coastline of South Africa to the northern border of Namibia, and from the mighty elephant to the humble grasshopper. 606 $aPlace names & gazetteers$2bicssc 606 $aGenealogy, heraldry, names & honours$2bicssc 610 $abird names 610 $aanimal names 610 $aplace names 610 $atoponyms 610 $asouthern Arica 610 $aindigenous languages 610 $aSan 610 $aKhoi 610 $ainsects 610 $ascientific names 610 $aorigens 610 $alanguages 610 $aAfrican 615 7$aPlace names & gazetteers 615 7$aGenealogy, heraldry, names & honours 700 $aMöller$b Lucie A$4auth$01302841 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910639977703321 996 $aOf the same breath$93026680 997 $aUNINA
