The term "Georgians" refers to the people of Georgia, a country at the intersection of Eastern Europe and Western Asia. The name is believed to be derived from the Persian word "Gurgān," meaning "land of the wolves," or possibly from the Greek "Georgios," associated with St. George, the patron saint of Georgia. This name has been used historically to distinguish the inhabitants of Georgia from other ethnic groups in the region. Additionally, the name has roots in the medieval period when the kingdom of Georgia emerged as a significant political entity.

What language do Georgians speak?

Most of them obviously speak Georgian. There are also speakers of related languages such as Mingrelian, but while Mingrelian is different enough to be seen as a distinct language, it is sociolinguistically speaking a dialect, because its speakers prefer regular Georgian as written language. There are minority languages such as Tsova-Tush a.k.a. Batsbi, which is related to Chechen, Abkhazian, which is a Circassian language, and Ossetian, which is related to Iranian languages.
