  1. Khopa and Sarpi form of აქრემი (akremi)

Old Georgian

Etymology

Ultimately from Proto-West Semitic *gamal- but the chain of derivation and the phonetic changes involved are uncertain. The initial ა- (a-) has been explained by a supposed transliteration of Biblical Hebrew הגמלים (hagemālīm, the camels) in the Bible translation; others have pointed to Ancient Greek ἀκάμαλα (akámala) in Hesychius. Yet others suspect a metathesis from *ქამელი (*kameli).
