[edit]- Fähnrich, Heinz, Sarǯvelaʒe, Zurab (2000) Kartvelur enata eṭimologiuri leksiḳoni [Etymological Dictionary of the Kartvelian Languages] (in Georgian), 2nd edition, Tbilisi: University Press, pages 594–595, follows Sarǯvelaʒe in reconstructing Proto-Kartvelian by connecting Georgian-Zan with Svan ჩერი (čeri, “spindle”). Considering the distribution of words, Svan must be borrowed from Mingrelian ჩერია, ჩერი (čeria, čeri, id.) which was also borrowed into various Western Georgian dialects
