WARSZAWA

The Polish capital does not have a certain etymology, but it does have a clear Megrelian ending "-awa". At the same time, the root "varsh-" is present in the Kartvelian dictionary. First, it is the surname Varshalomidze, where the root is "varshalomi", where, in turn, "lomi" is translated as "lion". Second, the word "varsha" in Orbeliani's dictionary means "jacket" with a possible transfer of meaning from "skin". Third, there is also the word "varshaki", meaning "lynx". One way or another, the etymology revolves around the cat family. To the group of words with the root "varsha" we should also add the surnames "Varshani" and "Varshanidze". All this proves that the root "varsha" previously existed.
