WIKITONGUES- Valerian speaking Mingrelian

About

Mingrelian is spoken by about 500,000 people, principally in the Samegrelo region of western Georgia. A Kartvelian language, Mingrelian is related only to three other languages, Georgian, Svan and Laz. Though primarily a spoken language, there has been some native media production since at least the nineteenth century. Mingrelian was also the mother tongue of Konstantine Gamsakhurdia, one of Georgia's most influential twentieth century writers.
