I generally like questions like “What is C#?”, “What is the antonym for «конструктор»?” and “What is the synonym for «нежить»?” – it's funny how they can be used to tell the geeks from musicians / philosophers / normal people. But it's a bit scary when you look at the bottom of the chocolate box with the list of ingredients, see the “RUS”, “ENG” and “GEO” labels there and start thinking “Wait, what the hell does the Russian Geo Engineering team have to do with chocolates?”
Well, blame ISO 639-2, the others have kat/ka for Georgian.
