An seanchas gearr, an seanchas is fearr
An scéal is giorra is milse I mbéal
An chnid is lú an chnid is fearr
Focal nó dhó má thaithníonn lig dó

Fol dé da dú ril la
Fol dé daí é

Droch-scéal fada nó scéal maith lán

Chomh bodhar te bata
Chomh dubh teis a sméar
Chomh gasta te giorrafhia
Chomh bocht teis an deor
