¿Cómo se traduce al inglés el dicho: "El que sabe, sabe?" No busco una traducción literal, sino una que conserve el sentido del dicho en español. Gracias.

Falta contexto pero creo que el sentido se refiere a que el experto o entendido en la materia será el único capaz de resolver el problema.

Para lo cual hay dos opciones:

  1. when you're good, you're good.
  2. with knowledge comes wisdom.

There could be a play on words here. "Saber" also refers to taste. Therefore:

See if one of these will be OK.

**"Knowledge comes, but taste lingers"

"With wisdom comes good taste"

"Wisdom comes with good taste"**

These are just my guess. They're the only alternative I can think of other than the direct translation.

In what context did you see this? Did it happen to be an ad for cough syrup?
