Sabie (Q1013366)

Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Sabie is a forestry town situated on the banks of the Sabie River in Mpumalanga, South Africa. The name Sabie is derived from the siSwati word "Ulusaba" which means "fearful river" because the river was once teeming with dangerous Nile crocodile. The word Ulusaba was modernized by the Afrikaner settlers who changed it from Ulusaba (siSwati) into the Afrikaans "Sabie" .

Summary from Afrikaans / Afrikaans Wikipedia (afwiki)

Sabie is 'n bosboudorp geleë aan die oewers van die Sabierivier in Mpumalanga, Suid-Afrika. Die Sabierivier was eens op 'n tyd vol krokodille en daarom het die Sjangaan-stam die rivier uluSaba (rivier van vrees) gedoop. Die dorp is gestig nadat HT Glynn en JC Ingle goud hier ontdek het en die Glynns-Lydenburg Gold Mining Company gestig het.
