Old Georgian

Etymology

Disputed. Perhaps a Northwest Caucasian borrowing: compare Adyghe уанэ (wanɛ), Kabardian уанэ (wanɛ, “saddle”), Ubykh уанагәы (wanagʷə, “the middle part of the saddle”). Alternatively, from ჰუნჱ (hunē, “horse”) +‎ Middle Persian [script needed] (gyl- /⁠gīr-⁠/, “to hold, restrain”) (see Persian گرفتن (gereftan)).

Noun

უნაგირი • (unagiri)
