Pronunciation

Verb
უხარია • (uxaria) (third-person singular present stative passive indicative, verbal noun სიხარული)

Usage notes
The verb is static/stative passive, and thus inversive. The indirect object stands in nominative, while the subject in dative. As one might guess, this verb involves two persons, subject, who is happy, and the object, generally news or something inanimate, which made the subject happy. Only has present screeves.
