    Fágann coisín siubhlach masla acht ní fhághann cois na comhnaidhe tada.
    Is fearr bean ná spre.
    Cailleach gan rapar nó teallach gan teine.
    Is fearr leath builín ná bheith gan áran.
    Fághann na ba fás an fhad is bhíos an féar ag fás.
    Ar mhaithe leis fhéin ghníos an cat crónán.
    Tugann Dia do chroidhe caithte é.
    Nuair is cruadh do'n chailligh caithfe sí rith.
    Is onóraighe poll ná piosa.
    Tá an Aoine in aghaidh na seachtaine.
    Is trom cearc i bhfad.
    Ní bhíonn meas ag aon duine ar chearc a charn uiligh fhéin.
