[[File:Garejawriting.jpg|thumb|250px|right|Ancient Asomtavruli version of Georgian alphabet in [[David Gareja]] Monastery by <small>Paata Vardanshvili</small>]] The '''Georgian alphabet''' is used to write in the [[Georgian language]] and other [[Kartvelian languages]]. The alphabet is called Khutsuri, first said around in the 11th century. Greek and Aramaic influences have been shown, but some Georgian scholars like [[Tamaz V. Gamkrelidze]] have said that they were freely invented in imitation of the Greek model rather than directly based upon earlier forms of the Aramaic alphabet even though the Georgian phonological inventory is very different from Greek. == Other websites == * [http://www.kartuli.com Georgian Website / Portal with info on Georgian culture and language] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151031225421/http://www.kartuli.com/ |date=2015-10-31 }} * [http://ncnever.free.fr/translit/ Direct transliteration Latin ↔ Georgian] * [http://titus.fkidg1.uni-frankfurt.de/unicode/tituut.asp Georgian fonts, compliant with Unicode 4.0, also available for MAC OS 9 or X] {{stub}} [[Category:Georgia (country)]] [[Category:Alphabets]]
