What is this article actually about? A word?? I'm not trying to be rude, but you have got to be kidding me... - Marvin01 | talk 17:32, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
Sadly, the farm is actually registered under the name "Twee Buffels Geschiet" and not the full name, as you can see on the Trig Survey map and this title deed. - htonl ( talk) 06:12, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
I removed the two requests for "Citations needed".
I Googled "Tweebuffelsmeteenskootmorsdoodgeskietfontein" and got 2900 hits. Does this need a citation to say tht it is part of South African folklore - if one can be found, great, if not - this is an example of regional common knowledge. Why else would a farm that has no significance other than having 44 letters in its name get 2900 hits?
As regards its translation - I improved the original translation that was given - I am reasonable fluent in Afrikaans. Moreover, most of the 2900 Google hits give a simialr translation to mine. Martinvl ( talk) 16:53, 26 October 2011 (UTC)
