@michaelzhang,
Quote:"There is a saying going like this..."
Is there something wrong with this sentence? Or can you guys suggest something more native?
In English, we don't use the present continuous, [be __ing] for things that are habitual/routine/general/always.
Because sayings are normally intended as a general truth, we use the present simple [goes,walks,talks,... ] for them.
There is a saying that goes like this, ... .
