Etymology[edit]

Čubinov compares with Old Armenian կոպ (kop, eyelid), which, unbeknownst to him, would parallel the equation of otherwise obscure Mishnaic Hebrew רֽיס (rīs, eyelid; eyelash; a race-course or stadium; the measure called stadion) with Old Armenian երէզ (erēz, band, bandage) and Old Georgian რეზი (rezi, body bandage) and Old Armenian ասպարէզ (asparēz, racecourse, stadium; stadion).

Pronunciation[edit]

  • IPA(key): /kʼopʼi/
  • Hyphenation: კო‧პი

Noun[edit]

კოპი (ḳoṗi) (plural კოპები)

  1. bump/lump (from blow on head)
