5) [line 21] HANAHU IZEI D'ACHLEI CHUSHLA BI'NEHARDE'A - those certain goats that ate [someone else's] peeled barley in Neharde'a

6) [line 23] KA TA'IN TUVA - he was claiming a lot [of compensation for his barley]

7) [line 24] LAV MIDI D'AVDA L'OSHOLEI UL'OGOREI HU - it is not something that a person lends or rents out to others

9) [line 30] SAFRA D'AGADTA - books of Agadah (Midrashim)
10a) [line 32] KEIVAN (D'MI PAGMA) [D'MIPAGMA] - since they are easily damaged
b) [line 32] KAPDEI INSHEI V'LO MOSHLEI - people are strict and do not lend them out

11a) [line 1] BAYIS - the lower story of a house
b) [line 1] ALIYAH - the second story of a house
12) [line 5] IKA L'MEIKAM ALAIHU - it is possible to discern [how the bricks fell]
13a) [line 6] B'CHABASA NAFIL - they fell through pressure (and thus the bricks of the lower story were crushed more)

18) [line 17] HALAH - the other person

19) [line 20] MANEH LI B'YADCHA V'HALAH OMER EINI YODE'A - one person claims, "You have in your possession a Maneh that belongs to me," and the other person says, "I do not know." (BARI V'SHEMA, BARI ADIF)
This case is called "Bari v'Shema," where one litigant has a claim of certainty ("Bari") and claims "I am certain [that the case occurred as follows]," and his opponent counters with an uncertain claim ("Shema"), a plea of "Perhaps [the case occurred in a different fashion]." Whether or not the person with the claim of certainty prevails is the subject of a Machlokes Amora'im.

20) [line 22] KEGON SHE'YESH ESEK SHEVU'AH BEINEIHEN - the case is one in which there is another disputed item involved in the claims which requires the defendant to swear [because of "Modeh b'Miktzas"] (SHEVU'AH: MODEH B'MIKTZAS HA'TA'ANAH)
If a person admits that he owes part of a claim, we suspect that the claim is true and that the debtor wants to temporarily postpone part of the payment but does not have the audacity to completely deny the claim. He is therefore required to take an oath, mid'Oraisa, that he does not owe the part he denies (Shemos 22:8). If he refuses to take the oath, he must pay the entire amount being claimed. (Similarly, in the case of our Gemara, when one litigant claims that certain bricks belong to him, the other litigant claims that he knows for certain that some of those bricks do *not* belong to his neighbor, and that he does not know about the rest of the bricks.)
