Abstract

In the eastern and western Georgian speeches, the change of structural elements (in most cases) does not give us possibility to talk about systemic differences. Accordingly, there are no linguistic ground for the theory of existence of three or four Kartvelian language systems. There are no proofs to consider Megrelian-Laz or Svanetian languages as independent language systems, there is no ground to prove that those speeches are out of Common Kartvelian system from systemic (and structural) perspective.
