grave cuando le mandan, o achácase. Es murmurador y detraedor; a todos menosprecia y tiene en poco.
\nEl viejo es cano. Tiene la carne dura. Es antiguo de muchos días. Es esperto. Ha esperimentado muchas cosas. Ganó muchas cosas por sus trabajos. El buen viejo tiene fama y honra. Es persona de buenos consejos y castigos. Cuenta las cosas antiguas, persona de buen exemplo. El mal viejo finge mentiras. Es mentiroso, borracho y ladrón. Es caduco, fanfarrón. Es tocho. Miente, finge.
\nLa vieja está siempre en casa. Es casera. Es guarda de la casa. La vieja honrada manda a los de la casa lo que han de hacer. Es lumbre, es espejo, es dechado. La vieja ruin es como rincón, como escuridad. Engaña y deshonra.
\nsullen or complaining when ordered to do something. He or she is a gossip and a traitor; he or she despises everybody and cares little for others.
\nThe older man has white hair. His flesh is hard. He is ancient by many days. He is an expert. He has experienced many things. He earned many things through his works. A good older man has fame and honor. He is a person endowed with good advice and chastisements. He tells ancient things, a person of good example. A bad older man feigns lies. He is a liar, a drunk, and a thief. He is past his prime and boastful. He is foolish. He lies and pretends.
\nThe older woman is always at home. She is domestic. She is the keeper of the house. An honest older woman tells the members of her household what they should do. She is a light, a mirror, and a paragon. A despicable older woman is like a [neglected] corner, like darkness. She deceives and dishonors [people].
