Etymology 2
editFrom Old Georgian სერი (seri, “supper”), from Proto-Georgian-Zan *ser- (“evening, night”). Cognate with Mingrelian სერი (seri, “night”), Laz სერი (seri, “night”), Mingrelian ო-სარ-ე (o-sar-e, “shirt, *nightshirt”).
Ultimately perhaps from Hurrian 𒊺𒂊𒊑 (še-e-ri /šeri/, “evening”), itself likely a modified semantic sense derived from Akkadian 𒊺𒂊𒊑 (še-e-ri /šeri/, “morning, the morning watch, the latest last hours of the night; later on, in the future”), corresponding to Arabic سَحَر (saḥar, “dawn”).
