hebrew is 100 percent asian.
arabic and hebrew are brother languages.
and georgian is not european for sure but it is not asian as well.
it is very different from them as well.though there are lots of persian and turkish words found in the language
it is absolutely different.

it is very different from them
From what?
As zashibis said, there isn't any linguistic category called "Asian" or "European". Indo-European languages are spoken in Europe and Asia (and in the Americas and Africa). Semitic languages are spoken in Europe (if we count Malta as Europe), Asia, and Africa.
Georgian isn't Indo-European or Semitic if that's what you mean. Neither are Basque or Hungarian, which I think we'd have to call "European," or Chinese and Thai, which most of us would call "Asian", if we were going to use those terms.
Whether Georgian is European or Asian presumably would depend on where you draw the arbitrary line between Europe and Asia. But if we're going to use those terms, it has to be one or the other.

our politicans are claiming that we are europeans and we georgians would be very happy
to be in the eu economic zone.i wish we were.but unfortunately we are neither in the eu zone nor we are europeans.
we are somewhere between you and asia.

dusheti, if you read something here that doesn't make sense to you, you should probably read things twice or three times before you respond. The problem may be with you and not with what was written.
Basques and Hungarians are European. Chinese and Thais are Asians. Read it again and you will see that I never said anything different.

dusheti, you're clearly confused by some of the terms being used here.
"Indo-European" is an adjective used to describe a particular family of languages originally spoken from India (in the east) to Iceland (in the west), and today spoken all over the world.
"European" is an adjective meaning from or relating to the continent of Europe.
Basque and Hungarian are European languages, because they spoken by people living in Europe. They are not, however, Indo-European languages (e.g. English, German, Spanish, Russian, Italian, and many more). The Georgian wikipedia article on the subject, though very brief, might help you understand the distinction Vinny was making
