Note: [1][2]

Georgian is a Unicode block containing the Mkhedruli and Asomtavruli Georgian characters used to write Modern Georgian, Svan, and Mingrelian languages. Another lower case, Nuskhuri, is encoded in a separate Georgian Supplement block, which is used with the Asomtavruli to write the ecclesiastical Khutsuri Georgian script.

Mtavruli, large versions of Mkhedruli used in all-caps text, are found in the Georgian Extended block,[3] although Georgian is generally unicameral and both upper cases are nonstandard.
