errors in the list

Today's word is "water", and for Georgian it lists the word ლუდი <ludi> as meaning water. This is a word in Georgian, but it means beer! Ludi never (ever) means just water. The correct word is წყალი c'qali.

Found another error in the list: today's is supposed to mean "pepper", but for the Georgian word they have ხორცი xorci which means "meat", not pepper.

One wonders who compiled these lists and what other errors they have awaiting us!

Yet another wrong entry: today's word in Georgian is supposed to be fruit, ხილი xili. But the actual word they give is სალათა salata, which surprisingly enough means salad.

There's another error in the list today (17 July): the word is supposed to be "pork", but the Georgian word given is თევზი tevzi which means 'fish'. The correct phrase is ღორის ხორცი ghoris khortsi.

Today's word of the day is supposed to be "fish"; the Georgian word listed is ბოსტნეული bost'neuli 'vegetables'. The correct word is თევზი tevzi 'fish'.
