თოკი
Georgian
editAlternative forms
editEtymology
editUncertain. Proto-Georgian-Zan *toḳ- is reconstructible, compare Mingrelian თოკი (toḳi) and Laz თოკი (toǩi), თოჭი (toç̌i), (მ)თუკი ((m)tuǩi), თიჭი (tiç̌i). For Laz vocalism compare the Zan descendants of Proto-Georgian-Zan *kor-. Mainstream Kartvelian literature is seemingly unaware of this root however.
