The primary road in a city.
خلفية ثقافية
In Tbilisi, the 'main street' is arguably Rustaveli Avenue. It is the heart of the city's political and cultural life. In the seaside city of Batumi, the 'main street' often refers to the Boulevard or the streets leading to the sea. In small Georgian towns, there is usually only one 'mtavari kucha' where all the shops and the local government are located. The concept of 'walking on the street' (ქუჩაში გასვლა) is a major social activity in Georgia, especially in the evenings.
Finding the Center
If you are lost in a Georgian town, just ask for 'Mtavari kucha'. It will almost always lead you to the bus station or the market.
Case Endings
Remember to drop the 'i' in 'Mtavari' when saying 'on the street' (Mtavar kuchaze). This is a common mistake for beginners.

الأسئلة الشائعة
4 أسئلةNo, it's a description. The official name might be 'Rustaveli Street' or 'Chavchavadze Avenue', but people will call it the 'mtavari kucha' to describe its role.
Not really. For a highway, use 'avtomagistrali' or 'trasa'. 'Kucha' implies a city setting with sidewalks and buildings.
This is due to Georgian grammar rules where adjectives lose their nominative marker '-i' when modifying a noun in other cases like the dative.
'Kucha' is any street. 'Gamziri' is a grand, wide avenue. All 'gamziri' are 'mtavari kucha', but not all 'mtavari kucha' are 'gamziri'.
