  黎族谚语另一个生动的表现领域,是朴素而又富有哲理的民谚:

  只有山猪才能独自觅食,人不能单独做食

  还有一类较鲜明反映海南语言特点的谚语,如:
  “个钱动不响,两钱碰才响”(汉),是典型的海南方言中忽略“数词”的用法;
  “墙脚地板出汗,三日内有雨大”(汉),是海南方言中修饰性形容词成份后置的方式,不说成“有大雨”而是“有雨大”;这种表述方法在日常生活中也多有碰见。如鸭雄(公鸭)、哥大(大哥)、姐兰(阿兰姐)等。据《方言志》研究专家论证,这种说法在黎语、临高话、村话、海南苗语、回辉话中都是这样。

  青柴难燃,娇子难教(汉)
  灯花不拨火不光,人到错时要人帮(汉)
  做田只惊立冬风,做人只惊老来穷(汉)
  一面皮鼓不知高低音(黎)
