意味
Water that is safe to drink.
文化的背景
In the mountains, water is considered a sacred gift. You will often see 'ts'q'aro' (springs) with cups left there for anyone to use. It is considered very rude to pollute these areas. While tap water is generally safe in Tbilisi, many locals prefer filtered or bottled water due to old pipes. Asking 'სუფთაა?' is a common way to check if a filter is installed. Offering a glass of water is the first step of hospitality. If a guest asks for water, it is often brought on a tray with a smile, emphasizing its 'purity'. During Epiphany (Natlisgeba), Georgians collect 'holy water'. While it is physically 'supta', they will always refer to it as 'ts'minda' or 'nak'urtkhi'.
The 'Safe' Question
If you're unsure about water safety, ask 'დალევა შეიძლება?' (Is drinking possible?). It's more direct than asking if it's 'clean'.
The Genitive Trap
Remember: 'Supta ts'q'ali' is the thing you drink. 'Supta ts'q'lis' is the thing you say about a lie.
