Ba shoopkáa mmak ɗee a koppee kɨ̀ kɨɨs kas.

Hair cannot take the place of a head pad.

The literal interpretation of this proverb is that natural abilities need supplementary enhancers while the postproverbial literally means that natural abilities provide self-contentment.

• Postproverbial: Shoopkáa a kɨɨs.
  Translation: Hair is a head pad.
