Etymology [edit]

Inherited from Proto-Kartvelian *ɣwino- (compare Mingrelian ღვინი (ḡvini), Laz ღუინი (ḡuini), Svan ɣwinel, ɣwinäl)[1], probably borrowed from Proto-Armenian *ɣʷeini̯o-, from Proto-Indo-European *we/oi(H)nyo-[2][3][4][5] (compare Armenian գինի (gini)). The sound change Proto-Indo-European *w- > Proto-Armenian *ɣʷ- > Proto-Kartvelian *ɣw- is impeccable[2] and is also found in Proto-Indo-European *wi(H)- > Proto-Armenian *ɣʷi- > Proto-Kartvelian *ɣwi- seen in Old Armenian գի (gi) and Georgian ღვია (ḡvia)).

Klimov[1], who agrees with the ultimate Proto-Indo-European origin of the word, denies derivation from Armenian citing Diakonoff: "It cannot go back to Armenian gini because the change * > g probably must have been accomplished there long before the first Kartvelian-Armenian contacts in 7th–6th centuries B.C.".
