THE CUCKOLD HUSBAND
LU MARITE E LI CORNE
   
One day a wife was patting her husband's head and felt three lumps. "My dear husband, what happened? You have three lumps."
Nu juorre 'na moglie alliscieve la cocce a lu marite e attintette tre vruògnele. "Marite mié, chi si fatte? Tu tié tre vruògnele!."
   
The cunning husband said: "These lumps mean that you cheated me three times."
Lu marite, furbe, dicette: "Chisse vruògnele vo dice ca tu mi si misse li corne tre volte."
   
"No, my dear husband, I swear to you that it is not true (that I was unfaithful to you) three times, only once I slept with our godfather." "None marite miè. Ti lu giure ca nin è lu vere tre volte, sole na volte so durmite nchi lu cumpare."
   
And so the husband learned that his wife had been unfaithful to him. Accuscì lu marite appurette ca la moglie iaveve misse li corne.
