Significado
To sign a document or marry.
Contexto cultural
The 'Public Service Hall' (Justice House) is the only place where 'ხელის მოწერა' (civil marriage) happens. It's a modern, transparent process that Georgians are very proud of. Young couples often 'sign' (ხელს აწერენ) months before the big traditional wedding to handle legalities or travel visas. In Georgian business, a signature is often accompanied by a stamp (ბეჭედი). Without the stamp, the 'ხელის მოწერა' might be considered incomplete in formal trade. The phrase is used in the 'Criminal Code' to discuss forgery, showing its transition from a simple action to a heavy legal concept.
The 'Mushroom' Context
If you are in Tbilisi, the Public Service Hall is called 'The Mushroom' (Soko). If someone says 'We are going to the Mushroom to sign,' they are getting married!
Case Matters
Don't forget the 's' in 'khelis' when using it as a noun phrase. It's the difference between 'hand writing' and 'writing of the hand'.

Preguntas frecuentes
10 preguntasNo, for an email signature, use 'ელექტრონული ხელმოწერა' as a noun, but you don't 'sign' an email with this phrase; you just send it.

'ხელმოწერა' is the noun (signature), while 'ხელის მოწერა' is the verbal noun/action (the act of signing).
In the past tense, yes. In the present, you can sometimes omit it if the context is very clear, but it's better to keep it.
You say 'ციფრული ხელმოწერა'.
No, for autographs, we usually use 'ავტოგრაფის მიცემა' (giving an autograph).
Yes, 'პეტიციაზე ხელის მოწერა' is perfectly correct.
It is in the Dative case.
Yes, 'ხელის მოხაზვა' (drawing the hand) is sometimes used informally.
Usually the opposite. 'ხელის მოწერა' often implies just the legal part, whereas 'ქორწილი' implies the party.
