    bráth.
    Éist le ghlór na h-abhann agus gheobhaidh tú breach.
    Moladh gach duine an t-áth mar ghéibheann sé é.
    Chloisfeadh sé an féar ag fás. An rud is giorra do'n chroidhe sé is giorra do'n bhéal.
    Ag cogadh ba mhó riamh, tháinig duine slán as.
    Is fearr sláinte ná ór.
    Bean tinncéara agus bean táilliúra, sin beirt nár réidhtigh riamh le n-a chéile.
    Is fearr súil le béal an chuain ná súil le béal na h-uaighe.
    Is minic a d'fhág béal na h-uaighe rud ag béal na truaighe.
    Sé a bhéal féin is giorra dó is gar dhá béal féin a chaith sé é.
