Old Georgian
editEtymology
editKlimov tentatively reconstructs Proto-Georgian-Zan *xetk-, *xtk- (“to tear, break; crack, burst”).[1]
Ačaṙean derives from Old Armenian խեթկեմ (xetʻkem), խեթեմ (xetʻem).[2] On the other hand, according to Vogt the direction of the borrowing is the opposite.[3]
Verb
editხეთქა • (xetka)
