Bhí cailín mór timcheall i-seacht mbliana déag aice, Bhí a mháthair ag eirighe sean agus críona. Aon lá amháin dubhairt sí lena mháthair. Anois a mháthair, "tá tusa ag éirighe sean, agus tá mise ábalta siubhail níos feárr ná tú. Ní raibh aon focail béarla ag an gcailín seo. Dubhairt a máthair léithe an chéad fear a chasas uirthí. Déarfadh sé, "What have you there,? agus abair tusa, "Butter Sir" Annsin déarfaidh sé, 'What are you charging for it, agus abair tusa, ten pence Sir. Nuair a bhí sí ag dul an bhóthair, casadh fear uirthí agus deir sé, Good-day miss? agus deir an cailín, Butter Sir, agus deir sé, céard tá tú á rádh, agus deir sí - ten pence Sir, mar b'sin é an meid Gaedhilige a bhí aice.
