#problem()
There are names of some countries in South America, written in the Georgian language, together
with their translations to English:

- Brasil: ბრაზილია
- Uruguay: ურუგვაი
- Peru: პერუ


What are the names, in English, of the following untranslated countries?

- არგენტინა
- კოლუმბია


#solution[
  - არგენტინა: Argentina
  - კოლუმბია: Columbia

  #v(4mm)

  Note that "Peru" and "Uruguay" in Georgian have the same amount of characters as their translations.
  The repetition of U in Uruguay assures us that Georgian is written left-to-right.

  "Brazil" has more letters than the version in English but thanks to the two other names, we already know some letters:

  #align(
    center,
    `_ R A _ I _ I A`,
  )

  #v(4mm)

  This should probably be “Brasilia” or “Brazilia”. \
  With those letters, we can guess the names of the other two countries:

  #v(4mm)


  #align(
    center,
    `A R G E _ _ I _ A`,
  )

  #align(
    center,
    `_ _ L U _ B I A`,
  )

  #v(4mm)


  which can only be Argentina and Colombia (Columbia).
