ლუდი
Georgian
Alternative forms
- ალუდი (aludi) (Racha dialect)
Etymology
According to Abaev, borrowed from Ossetian *ӕлут (*ælut), see ӕлутон (æluton); ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₂elut-. That brewing among Georgians has only been popular among highlanders, coupled with the fact that beer plays a central part in Alanic life and folklore may be a good indicator of the borrowing.
