Cuimsíonn na litreacha camáin agus cuartha ar nós cuingeacha go caolchúiseach, ag tabhairt le fios go bhfuil an ceol agus an amhránaíocht lárnach in Airneán. Déanann línte láidre aithris ar chliath an cheoil scríofa, ag tabhairt struchtúr agus rithim don dearadh, agus i gcodarsnacht leis sin, tugann cuartha agus línte scuabtha le fios gluaiseacht agus sreabhadh.
