>Georgian, spoken by over three million people in the southern Caucasus,
>is the only witten member of the Kartvelian language family, and has a
>literary history of a millenium and a half. The language provides a
>crucial resource for studying the cultures, languages, and history of
>the region. Among the linguistic points of interest are the phonological
>proclivity for consonant clusters, and the typological characteristics
>of mixed or split case marking and verb marking systems. The grammatical
>sketch will serve as a concise presentation of modern Georgian
>phonology, morphology and syntax with particular attention given to the
>complex verbal morphology and the morphosyntax of case government. A
