1. Proverbs

   There are a good many old proverbs in my district such as:-

   Its a long lane that has no turn
   Its an ill wind that does not blow favour to some one
   New brooms sweep clean
   Where there is a will there is a way
   Charity begins at home
   Fine feathers make fine birds
   His own nose will teach you
   A living dog is worth a dead lion
   A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush
   Every dog is stiff at his own door

   Every cock crows on his own dunkle

   The old dog for the long road and the pup for the boreen

   
   When poverty comes in the front door lucks goes out the window

   
   The world would not make a racehorse out of an ass
   One black lad knows another

   
   Fág Ceash (?) mar atá sé

   Ní h-e lá na gaoithe lá na sgolba

   Ní deanfadh saoghal capal rasa d'asal

   An rud is anamh is ionghantach

   Is fearr obar na cainnt
