• Čuxua, Merab (2000–2003) Kartvelur ena-ḳilota šedarebiti leksiḳoni [The Kartvelian Comparative Dictionary] (in Georgian), Tbilisi: Universali, page 188-189, derives from Proto-Kartvelian *rac̣iw- connecting it with Svan რა̈ჭუ̂ (räč̣û), რეჭუ̂ (reč̣û, “rabbit”), thus deriving Armenian from Georgian. He explains the Svan semantic shift by Latin aquila (“eagle”) <-> aquilus (“darkish”) and Russian серый (seryj, “gray”) -> серяк (serjak, “rabbit”).
