I don't know how to edit this part, but the part near the top where the Asomtavruli, Nuskhuri and Mkhedruli alphabets are each in a horizontal row, stacked on top of one another, includes lasi where tani should be. (Lasi is then included again in its correct placement.) Just wanted to let someone know that could fix it! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.132.40.203 (talk) 17:59, 10 December 2021 (UTC)

The article says that there is only one typeface. This is clearly untrue. Why is that written? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mothglob (talk • contribs) 15:40, 21 March 2022 (UTC)

Perhaps it meant to say that Georgian typefaces come as single-style font families (no bold or italic). This should be rephrased. Daashu (talk) 09:51, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

The CSS for the article specifies "sans-serif" for the Georgian text. This means on my Mac the text is rendered using Helvetica. In the variations section, Helvetica renders many of the characters in their "simplified" form. I.e. without hooks and with straight lines. It might be a good idea to specify a serif font when listing characters if you're referencing specific parts of those characters which may not be rendered in a sans-serif font. noktulo (talk) 16:26, 18 December 2022 (UTC)

Greetings User:Verdy p! Mtavruli has no historic significance in development of the Georgian scripts. It is simply the all-caps version of Mkhedruli script. Regards, An emperor ✖ 23:56, 23 May 2023 (UTC)

According to the official records of the Republic of Azerbaijan there is a latin scripst, developed for ingiloy dialect of georgian language that is teached in the ingiloy secondary schools. You can find this info even in wiki. pls check https://ru.wikipedia.orghttps://wikious.com/en/%D0%98%D0%BD%D0%B3%D0%B8%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%B9%D1%86%D1%8B 85.132.122.140 (talk) 05:26, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

Of course, mostly when people say when was Georgian alphabet Asomtavruli created there will be a debate. Georgians will tell you about King Parnavaz (3rd century BC) and Armenians will tell you it was created in 5th Century. While some people will say it was created with spread of Christianity in Georgia (4th century AD).

In 2008-2015 there was found an artifact found in Georgia, on "Graklianis Gora"(Please search about it) There was really old Georgian scripts found as 7th Century BC. So this found destroys other believes about Georgian scripts. How do we know it is Georgian? Most of the letters look a lot like Georgian symbols and letters of Asomtavruli or Mkhedruli. The alphabet was called Grak'liani. DEMEnsion123 (talk) 18:27, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

Unless there are reliable sources that have concluded that it's Georgian, rather than speculating that it might be and remarking that a few of the symbols look similar, there's nothing for us to report here. Largoplazo (talk) 19:25, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
