બેઠક Bethak

પાણી પીને ઘર પુછવું, ને દીકરી દઈને કુળ પુછવું.

pāṇī pīnē ghara puchavuṁ, nē dīkarī daīnē kuḷa puchavuṁ.

Literally
Ask about the house after drinking water, and ask about the lineage after giving a daughter.
What it means
One should verify the background and character of a family before entering into a permanent alliance like marriage.
