Reconstruction notes
[edit]Svan is basically a regular correspondence, however its alternative forms that contain -შ- (-š-) rather than -ს- (-s-) require clarification as typically one would expect სგუ̂ ← *შგუ̂ ← *šw- (sgû ← *šgû ← *šw-) in accordance with Gamq̇reliʒe's law. The same applies to the Laz descendant where one would expect სქ (sk) rather than შქ (şk).
