In this lesson, we will learn how to introduce ourselves and ask for someone's name in Georgian. Introducing yourself is an important part of making new friends and connections, and it is also a crucial skill if you plan on visiting Georgia. Whether you're a complete beginner or you already know a bit of Georgian, this lesson will help you get started with basic greetings and introductions.

Basic Greetings

Before we learn how to introduce ourselves, let's start with some basic Georgian greetings:

• გამარჯობა (gamardjoba) - Hello
• ალაგა (alaga) - Hi (informal)
• გამარჯობა გაგიმარჯოს (gamardjoba gagimarjos) - Hello, how are you?
• როგორ ხარ? (rogore khar?) - How are you?

You can respond to these questions with one of the following phrases:

• მაგარი ვარ, გმადლობთ (magari var, gmadlobt) - I'm fine, thank you.
• კარგად ვარ, გმადლობთ (kargad var, gmadlobt) - I'm good, thank you.
• არ ვარ ფეხით (ar var p'ekh'it) - I'm not so good.

Introducing Yourself

To introduce yourself in Georgian, you can use the following phrases:

• მე ვარ [თქვენი სახელი], იცადეთ [თქვენი სახელი] (me var [t'k'veni sak'eli], ists'adeet [t'k'veni sak'eli]) - I am [your name], nice to meet you [their name].
• [თქვენი სახელი] ვარ, საიდან ხართ? ([t'k'veni sak'eli] var, sa'idan khar-t?) - My name is [their name], where are you from?

Here are some more examples of introductions you can use:
