Proverb: ‘Nea onim nsaa, na oto nea ago.’ Literal Translation: He who knows nsaa is the one that even buys the weak and old one. (Glover, 1969)
Meaning: Nea onim means he who knows, nsaa refers to a cloth, na oto means who buys, nea ago means that which is weak. This proverb draws the significance of aiming at good quality and durability rather than quantity.
Moral Value: The proverb advises people to make quality and durability a hallmark, and avoid mediocrity in their productivity. It also encourages people to patronize high-quality goods. This is a symbol of a taste for good quality and durability.
