બેઠક Bethak

મ્હેડે સાકર, ને પેટમાં કાતર.

mhēḍē sākara, nē pēṭamāṁ kātara.

Literally
Sugar in the mouth, and scissors in the belly.
What it means
Said of a hypocritical person who speaks very sweetly but harbors malicious intentions to harm you.
ગુજરાતી કહેવતસંગ્રહ (Gujarati Kahevat Sangrah) (1923) · read from the scan by machine — the Gujarati itself is unchecked · English is machine-made and nobody has checked it yet

Heard it differently, or know we've got the sense wrong? Tell us — that is exactly the kind of correction this needs.
