Significado
Judge people by their actions.
Contexto cultural
In Georgia, the 'Supra' (feast) is where this proverb is most often heard. The Tamada (toastmaster) might use it to toast to a guest's achievements. The phrase is deeply tied to the idea of 'good works' being the evidence of faith. Farmers use this literally to discuss the quality of their saplings, which reinforces the proverb's truth every harvest season. In the startup scene in Tbilisi, this is used to emphasize 'delivery' over 'pitching'.
Use the '-ო'
Always include the '-ო' suffix. It makes you sound like you've lived in Georgia for years and understand the oral tradition.
Don't over-explain
Georgians love brevity. You don't need to explain the proverb after saying it; the phrase itself is the complete argument.
