Abstract

Old Georgian can be seen as a linguistic system almost independentof modern Georgian in terms of grammatical structure and vocabulary.Therefore, some old Georgian texts are sometimes quite difficult for a modernreader to understand, their sophisticated meaning being only part of thechallenge. Along with its practical value – that is, comprehension at a languagelevel – translations of old Georgian texts into modern Georgian also have asignificant cognitive function as they contribute to the enrichment of the fieldin question with relevant terms and means of expression.
