About Georgian
Georgian (kartuli ena) is the official language of Georgia, a country in the Caucasus. It is the primary language of about 3.9 million people in Georgia itself (83 percent of the population), and of another 200,000 abroad (chiefly in Turkey, Iran, Russia, USA and Europe). It is the literary language for all ethnographic groups of Georgian people, especially those who speak other South Caucasian languages (or Kartvelian languages): Svans, Megrelians, and the Laz. Gruzinic, or "Kivruli", sometimes considered a separate Jewish language, is spoken by an additional 20,000 in Georgia and 65,000 elsewhere (primarily 60,000 in Israel). From "Georgian language", Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgian_language, 12/8/06, available under the terms of the GFDL
