What is "Hints"? You did not define that anywhere. You should use the variables k,v. Or to make things clear, use _,phrase instead. pairs can use any variable. Lastly, for TextLabels to display text you should use the Text property.
local listOfPhrases = {"Example", "Whatever you want", "Hello, world!", "LOL!"}
local interval = 3
while true do
for _,phrase in pairs(listOfPhrases) do
script.Parent.Text = phrase
wait(interval)
end
end
