Comórtas "Sabhail an Seanfhocal"

Tugann an seanfhocal saibhreas don teanga agus ba  mhaith linn postaerí 
nua-aimseartha a dul leis ár comórtas "Sabháil an Seanfhocal" Tóg amach na  criáin agus na péinteanna, no an ríomhaire agus an printéir go tapa!!!

The Seanfhocal (proverb) brings a richness to the Irish language. We want the students of St. Joseph's to design new, modern posters for our "Save the Seanfhocal" Competition!.

Aithníonn ciaróg ciaróg eile. 
(One beetle recognises another)

Is glas iad na cnoc i bhfad uainn. 
(The grass is greener on the other side)

Ní thagann ciall roimh aois. 
(sense doesn't come before age)

Bíonn an fhírinne searbh. 
(The truth is harsh)

Mol an óige is tiocfaidh sí. 
(Praise the young and they will bloom)

Tús maith leath na hoibre 
(a good start is half the work)

Nuair a mbíonn na cait amuigh bíonn na luiche ag rince.
(When the cat's away the mice will play!)

Buail an iarann té 
(Strike while the iron is hot)

Is binn béal ina thost 
(Silence is golden)

Ní mar a shíltear a bhítear 
(All is not what it seems)

Is fearr mall ná go brách 
(Better late than never)

Ní neart go cur le cheile 
(Strength in unity)

Níl lá na baistí lá na páistí 
(A rainy day is not a day for children)

Níl aon tinteán mar do thinteán féin 
(There's no hearth like your own hearth)
