MONTHS

Old-Georgian names of the months of the year

აპნისი/ ɑp'nisi /
January - Month of plentySame as Apan. It is probably derived from the name Kapan which was the deity of Plenty and Abundance in the pagan pantheon.
სარწყუნისი/ sɑrt͡sʼq'unisi /
February - Month of a heavenly springLater known in folklore as month of Disclosure. Old Georgian "Surtskani" consists of two parts: "Sur" and "Tskani", the latter must be the current "water", and the former could be the same "water" in Avestan form. In Zend Avesta, among the twenty-eight yazats, was known as "Ardavir-sur", which means "source of heavenly water".
მირკანი/ mirk'ɑni /
March - Month of covenant and oathSame as Mihrakan. Derived from the Pantheon of Zoroastrian Mithraism where he was the deity of light, covenant and oath.
იგრიკა/ igrik'ɑ /
April - Month of life and riverIgrika, with primary form being "Igri", "Igrisa". Igri in the pagan pantheon was a water deity who is also found in the myth of Amirani as Igri-lord. April is the period of the rising of the rivers, hence the month was named after the water deity. The name of the river Enguri is also derived from Igri. The word Igri itself must be a modification of "Aregi" which means sun in Armenian and life in a figurative sense.
ვარდობისთვე/ vɑrdɔbistʰvɛ /
May - Month of bloomingSame as Vardobisa or month of roses. There is speculation that the old name of the month must have been Nanai - i.e. the goddess of the great mother, fertility and beauty, which corresponded to the Ishtar "Inana" common in the ancient East and partly to Rea-Cybela, noting that one of their symbols was indeed a rose.
მარიალისა/ mɑriɑlisɑ /
June - Later known in folklore as a month of mowing. K. According to Kekelidze, "Marial" comes from the Armenian "Marer".
თიბისა/ tʰibisɑ /
July - Month of mowingLater known in folklore as Kvirikobistve. K. According to Kekelidze, "Tibisai" is a pure Georgian name, an indicator of the season when mowing takes place.
ქველთობისა/ kʰvɛltʰɔbisɑ /
August - Month of charityLater known in folklore as a month of Virgin Mary. Possibly Queloba (Quelts, Month of Kindness). According to Kekelidze, in case of "Queltoba" it would be a mistake to name the first part of "Kue" as "Kve" to produce Kveli from it and appeal to it. The original form is "Que", which is associated with one of the months of the Iranian pagan calendar - "Farvardin", during which was held the feast of the underworld - "Faravarta".
ენკენისთვე/ ɛnk'ɛnistʰvɛ /
September - Month of transferStart of the New Year in Georgia according to the old Georgian pagan calendar. It was popularly called Enkenistve.

ღვინობისთვე/ ʁvinɔbistʰvɛ /

ტირისკონი/ t'irisk'ɔni /
November - Later known in folklore as a month of St. George. K. According to Kekelidze, it should be "Tiriskan" and not "Tiriskon". Tiriskan is divided into "Tiris" and "Kani". The first part of "Tiri" is the name of the ancient Iranian month "Tiris", from which the name of the fourth Persian new month "Tir", as well as the Cappadocian "Tirix-Τήρι-Τειρει" and the Armenian "TRE" (here it is the fourth month) are derived. The second ending "kan" is an Iranian-Armenian ending, such as the Iranian "froti-kan", or later "froti-gan", Cappadocian "mitrakan", Armenian "mehekan" and "ahekan".
ტირისდენი/ t'irisdɛni /
December - Later known in folklore as a month of Christmas. K. According to Kekelidze, it should be "Tirisdin" and not "Tirisden". Tirisden is divided into "Tiri" and "Dini" parts.

The second ending "din" is the Iranian ending for the name of the month, eg Parvar-din.
