Morphology
The phrase is a straightforward combination of the adjective/noun 'Georgian' (relating to Georgia) and 'language', so its meaning 'the language of Georgia' is directly inferable by composing the constituents. This adjective + language naming pattern is cross-linguistically common and follows standard compositional rules, making it immediately comprehensible to a B1 learner who knows both words.
Etymology
Georgian language simply names the speech of the people of Georgia: Georgian comes from the country's name and language means the way people speak. The people call it 'Kartuli', so Georgian language means the national language of Georgia, with its own special alphabet.
