બેઠક Bethak

પડોશી સાથે લડવાનું ખોટું-આવ પડોશી આપને લડીએ; પડોશી કહે લડે મારી બલા. જવાબ-બલા તો તારેજ ઘેર. એથી લડાઇ શરૂ થઇ.

paḍōśī sāthē laḍavānuṁ khōṭuṁ-āva paḍōśī āpanē laḍīē; paḍōśī kahē laḍē mārī balā. javāba-balā tō tārēja ghēra. ēthī laḍāi śarū thai.

Literally
Fighting with a neighbor is wrong—come neighbor let us fight; the neighbor says fight, my trouble. Answer—the trouble is at your own house. From this the fight started.
What it means
Arguments often start from trivial provocations and escalate due to mutual stubbornness.

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