A Murle grammar / A Murle vocabulary.
University of Khartoum.
Murle
srm-mrl
This detailed grammatical description of Murle, dating back to the 1940s, is also accompanied by a representative Murle-English / English-Murle vocabulary. Prosodic information is not included, and there are reasons to doubt the accuracy of phonetic transcription in some cases, but the source is very important at least in terms of its sheer volume.

Relatively large dictionary of Mursi, oriented mainly at native speakers and therefore not particularly accurate with phonology (i. e. no indication of prosody); various semantic inaccuracies and typos also render the source less useful than it could have been.

Nama Wörterbuch.
Pietermaritzburg: University of Natal Press.
Nama
kkh-nam
The oldest dictionary of Nama, originally published in 1889 by J. G. Krönlein; edited and expanded more than half a century later by F. Rust. This was the largest Nama dictionary in existence before Haacke and Eiseb's collective effort made it into a document of historical importance. Still, the dictionary remains useful in that it captures a hundred year old picture of Nama, including some archaisms that would no longer be in use by the end of the XXth century.

For many of these languages, the work still remains the best source of original data, despite occasional inaccuracies and misprints.
