The ===Etymology=== sections of the entries in this category imply that their terms come ''directly'' from Hittite into Modern Georgian, but of course, almost three thousand years elapsed between the extinction of the one and the development of the other. Is this just total nonsense, or are the ===Etymology=== sections merely incomplete, or . . . ? —[[User: Ruakh |Ruakh]]<sub ><small ><i >[[User talk: Ruakh |TALK]]</i ></small ></sub > 20:20, 12 July 2012 (UTC) |

:Since Hittite had neither a ''v'' nor an ''f'', I'm gonna call bullshit on the etymologies of [[სუფთა]] and [[ველი]]. ''Duddumili'' really is an adjective meaning "silent", so I suppose it's possible that the Georgian word is an ''indirect'' loanword (having gone through several intermediate steps), but it's more likely to be a coincidence. —[[User:Angr|'''An''']][[User talk:Angr|''gr'']] 20:48, 12 July 2012 (UTC) |
