How to say it (As they say, + proverb): Learn the meaning, not word for word: Better late than never = देर आए, दुरुस्त आए। Introduce it: As they say, … / There is a saying, … — As they say, practice makes perfect. Use it after a real situation, not alone: You came early — the early bird catches the worm! Keep the words fixed: say 'Haste makes waste', not 'Hurry makes waste'. Proverbs never change form.
