Old Georgian
Etymology
From Proto-Armenian *deło (“vegetation, grass, herb”), the ancestor of Old Armenian դեղ (deł), genitive դեղոյ (dełoy).[1][2][3]
If, however, this word is cognate with Mingrelian დოლო (dolo), ნდოლო (ndolo), then Proto-Georgian-Zan *dol- is reconstructible, whose vocalism is incompatible with the Armenian. For the rare cases of umlaut in Georgian, see Sarǯvelaʒe.[4]
Noun
მდელოჲ • (mdeloy)
- grass
- soap
Usage notes
In translations, corresponds to Old Armenian խոտ (xot), դալար (dalar), դեղ (deł), օճառ (ōčaṙ) and բանջար (banǰar).
