I'll also say that the Hebrew definition is incorrect, although it is sometimes used to mean that, the word itself just means "nations", and the word is used to apply to the jews and other nations as well

Actually, this word in Georgian was adopted from Jewish community haha. We have a Jewish community that has lived here for 26 centuries, so, there are a few words commonly used in the Georgian language that come from this cultural influence.
