Résumé

[en] Kartvelian is often considered as isolated group of languages, spoken in Georgia. However, its incorporation in the Eurasiatic or Nostratic macro-family is based on some rather conclusive evidences of non-hazardous correspondences between Kartvelian and other neighbor languages, especially Indo-European. Here we will point out that some correspondences between Kartvelian and non-Indo-European Nostratic languages put them lexically closer to Turkic and Finno-Volgaic languages. Neither Ugric nor Mongolic languages does not seem to have some significant correspondences with Kartvelian languages. Lexical correspondences prove to have much more areal that hierarchical proximity.
