Old Armenian
Etymology
Akin to Georgian ხოპი (xoṗi), ხოფი (xopi), Mingrelian ხოპი (xoṗi), ხოფი (xopi), Laz ხოპე (xop̌e). Because the Georgian-Zan words exhibit more basic meanings, Ačaṙean derives the Armenian from them. He also connects Kubachin Dargwa hob (“spade”) found only in Erckert.
Noun
խոփ • (xopʻ)
- plowshare
