Old Georgian

Etymology

From Old Armenian վազ (vaz, “leap, jump, springing forward; *shoot (of vine)”), the latter sense appearing in Armenian records only since Middle Armenian վազ (vaz).[1][2][3] It is now the commonly used form for the sense "vine"; the Old Georgian form ვენაჴი (venaqi, “vine; vineyard”) now primarily means "vineyard" except in formal or poetic language.[4][5]

Noun

ვაზი • (vazi)

  1. branch, shoot (of vine)
    • 5th century and later, Bible, John 15.6, (Adysh Gospels):
      არა თუ ვინმე დაადგრა ჩემ თანა, განვარდა იგი გარე ვითარცა ვაზი, განჴმა, და შეკრიბონ იგი და ცეცხლთა დაასხან იგი, და დაიწუას.
      ara tu vinme daadgra čem tana, ganvarda igi gare vitarca vazi, ganqma, da šeḳribon igi da cecxlta daasxan igi, da daic̣uas.
    • 10th century, Hippolytus, Commentary on the Song of Songs :[6]
      რამეთუ იყო მათ თანა ლომი და ვაზი ვენაჴი და კაცი და ორბი იგი.
      rametu iq̇o mat tana lomi da vazi venaqi da ḳaci da orbi igi.

Usage notes

In John 15:6, corresponds to Old Armenian ուռ (uṙ) and Ancient Greek κλῆμα (klêma). In Hippolytus, corresponds to Old Armenian որթ (ortʻ).
