This assumption relies upon Nadareišvili's nonexistent Svan **ლი-თხ-უნ-ე (**li-tx-un-e) (the correct form of which is ლი-ტხ-უნ-ე (li-ṭx-un-e) which can't be related on phonetic grounds). As there's no reason to suspect a suffix within Svan itself, Georgian ნთხ-ევ-ა (ntx-ev-a) can't be related to this root either. Hence the correct reconstruction is *txar-
