Summary
Georgian, according to the general typology, is defined as a mixed language, more
precisely, as a role-deixis-oriented language, but the same qualification would
apply to Batsbi (or Tsova-tush, the designation now preferably used by native
speakers). According to the suggested theoretical approach for a comprehensive
description of languages, it is not enough to define languages as merely mixed
systems, but also state which hierarchies they make use of. The hierarchies are
defined according to the priority given to marked categories during linguistic
realizations: they reflect dynamic synchronic and/or diachronic processes of
linguistic structuring.
