  1. Is goire do'n mnaoí leath-sgéal ná a práisgín.
    Tosach sláinte codlad.
    Ceann mór na céille bige.
    Déirce do'n puncán lán.
    Ag cumilt bealaidh ar mhuin na muice meithe.
    Is geal leis an bfiach dubh a géarrach fhéin.
    Is deachair ceann críonna a cur ar ghuailnibh óga.
    Ritheann uisge doimhin go ciúin.
    Tosach ceatha ceo. Deireadh ceatha gleó.
    Snáithe fada an tailliúir fallsa.
    Gáire maith agus codladh fada an dá leigheas is feárr ag an doctúir.
    Fear do comhairle fear do fhuath.
    A sgéal féin sgéal gach duine.
    Is maith an tiomáiniac an té a bíos ar an gclaidhe.
    Is maith sugha bó beó nó marbh.
    Bíonn adharca fada ar bhó thar lear.
    An rud is goire do'n croidhe sé is goire do'n bhéal.
    Nuair is mó spóirt is cóir stad de.
    Sé an deis is truime is ísle a chromas a cheann.
