Kan kanla temizlenmez.
Blood is not cleaned with blood
(i.e. use peaceful means to end conflicts)

>
> le gerku poi cmoni na'e batci

Havlayan k=F6pek =FDs=FDrmaz
The dog who barks doesn't bite
(i.e. someone who blusters a lot won't carry out their threats)

>
> le stace tavla se livbai so le tcadu

Do=F0ru konu=FEan, dokuz k=F6yden kovulur.
He who speaks truly is thrown out of nine villages
(i.e. telling the truth will make you unpopular)

co'o mi'e robin.
