The official language of Georgia, the country at the intersection of Eastern Europe and Western Asia, is Georgian. Georgian is a unique language, belonging to the South Caucasian language family, and has its own distinct alphabet, which is one of the oldest in the world. The language is an essential aspect of Georgian identity, with its rich literary and cultural history. While Russian is also spoken by some Georgians, particularly older generations, Georgian remains the primary language used in government, education, and daily communication, reflecting the nation’s sovereignty and cultural heritage.
