Etymology

[edit]

I accept, that usually it is desirable to record all published etymological proposals. But in cases where the source is patently wrong, we are doing a disservice to the readers by showing it. Latin cicer would give *კიკერ (*ḳiḳer) in Georgian if borrowed anciently and *ციცერ (*cicer) if borrowed recently. 100% identity with the regular Tbilisi reflex of սիսեռն (siseṙn) makes it obviously an Armenian borrowing. --Vahag (talk) 16:50, 25 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
