South Caucasian languages

South Caucasian languages, also called Kartvelian languages, include Georgian, Mingrelian, Laz, and Svan. They are native to the South Caucasus region and form a unique language family, not related to neighboring Indo-European or Turkic languages. Georgian, the most widely spoken, has its own script and rich literary tradition. These languages are characterized by complex phonologies and grammar, with features like ergative structures. They are primarily spoken in Georgia and surrounding areas, serving as vital cultural identifiers. Their unique linguistic features make them a fascinating subject of study for researchers interested in language history and diversity.
