Georgian orthography

Hah, seeing all sorts of weird orthographies I wondered why no one suggested a Georgian orthography. (well, actually, I didn't wonder, but I do so like the squiggly alphabet)

Here's just a list of correspondences. It was fairly simple, however I had to grab Q'ar for y. Of course that was a basically random decision.

Period and comma I think map fairly easily onto Georgian, maybe'd have to use the paragraph-ender punctuation for the period and just the Georgian comma or period for the comma.

*' = Hae
*a = An

*b = Ban
*c = Shin

*d = Don
*e = En

*f = P'ar
*g = Gan

*i = In
*j = Zhar

*k = Kar
*l = Las

*m = Man
*n = Nar

*o = On
*p = Par

*r = Rae
*s = San

*t = Tan
*u = Un

*v = Vin
*x = Khan

*y = Q'ar
*z = Zen

Feel free to improve (there's plenty of room for improvement--- I only know a little Georgian). -- djin

While [f] and [ə] don't exist in Georgian, there are some extensions of mkhedruli made for other languages of Caucasus region. Therefore I propose the following orthography:

{| class="wikitable"

! character !! name !! latin equivalent

|| ა || ani || a
|-
|| ბ || bani || b
|-
|| გ || gani || g
|-
|| დ || doni || d
