Etymology
Ultimately from Ancient Greek μουσική (mousikḗ). There is a single Old Georgian attestation in the form მუსიკისაჲ (musiḳisay), but it is not clear whether there is continuity between this and the modern Georgian form.
Orbeliani describes the word as 'Latin', perhaps hinting that the modern form is borrowed from some western language.
