Well, write in the comments what words and phrases you are interested in and I will add here.
Here is the answer to the most sought-after phrase “how will it be in Georgian I love you”, “monkey” on the Internet: meshen mik varkhar, as in Georgian the word Please. Also, the phrase “designation in Georgian word dzamo” - Here, in my opinion, the word “dzamo” does not sound right. Should be "Dz mao"

I love you - me shen mik varkhar
monkey - maimuni
please - inet ( like when we say: Please take your key . There is no direct translation for this particle in Georgian. In different cases, it can be expressed in different ways).
Dz mao - Brother (“Dz ma” in Russian is brother, but in our case “Dz mao” is an appeal to a close or not close person. For example, “Gamarjoba dz mao” - “hello brother”)

There is another thing that is interesting and useful to many. For example offensive, obscene words in Georgian. It's because you didn't accidentally say those words there. Of course it will be inconvenient. To do this, I made a short Georgian dictionary of offensive, obscene words and expressions. To download this archive. The archive contains Georgian curses, swear words in DOC format in RAR archive with translation into Russian. Unpack it.

I also wrote a small post for you and there you will find an archive that you can download

What you need to know when going to Georgia? Most Georgians over 30 know Russian. Young people usually know English. In Adjara (Batumi), the majority understands Turkish.

Features of the Georgian language

In modern Georgian alphabet 33 letters- 5 vowels and 28 consonants. This is the only alphabet in the world in which one letter corresponds to one sound and vice versa.

Pronounced accents not in Georgian. However, there is a conditional rule. In two-syllable words, the stress usually falls on the first syllable, in polysyllabic words, the third syllable from the end.

In Georgian no childbirth. In Georgian writing no capital letters.

The Georgian language is very beautiful. And the Georgian polyphony is recognized by UNESCO as a masterpiece of cultural heritage. In 1977, two Voyager spacecraft set off to explore space. On board is a message from humanity to extraterrestrial civilizations. Among the great works Chakrulo's song:

Georgian dialects

There are several Kartvelian languages: actually general Georgian - literary (kartuli ena), Svan (Lushnu nin), Mingrelian (Margalur nina), Laz (Lazuri nena).

The Georgian language includes several dialects, the differences between which are insignificant: Kartli, Kakhetian, Imeretian, Gurian, Pshavian, Rachinsky, Adjarian, Khevsurian, Tush, etc.

Interesting facts about the Georgian language

• The modern Georgian alphabet "Mkhedruli" was created in the 10th century, and in the 60s of the 19th century Ilya Chavchavadze carried out a reform and reduced the number of letters in the alphabet to 33, removing five archaic and practically unused letters from it.

This is not surprising, because the tradition of winemaking originated in Georgia in the distant VI millennium BC.

Georgian language (ქართული ენა; kartuli ena) - the most important language in the Caucasian group of languages. The Caucasian group of languages ​​is divided into three language families: South Caucasian or Kartvelian, Northeastern and Northwestern. They are very varied. Strabo (Greek historian and geographer ) wrote that in I century BC only in the region of Dioscuria (Sukhumi) the Romans needed at least 70 translators. Only in Dagestan alone there are 14 nationalities and 29 languages, so it is not surprising that the name of the Caucasus comes from the Arabic phrase "mountain of languages".

The Georgian alphabet has 5 vowels and 28 consonants, it is unlike any other alphabet in the world. Georgia had its own written language as early as III century BC, but it was replaced by Greek and Aramaic writing. The modern alphabet began to develop with the advent of the Christian faith in the country and was already definitely used in 450. The first literary work “The Martyrdom of the Holy Queen Shushanik” was written by Y. Tsurtaveli between 476 and 483. IN XII century Shota Rustaveli wrote a poem in verse "The Knight in the Panther's Skin". There are no genders in the Georgian language, and there are no capital letters in the Georgian script.

Most of the adult population in large cities of Georgia knows Russian. Young people often understand and speak English well. In mountainous areas, in small villages, the local population speaks only Georgian.
