How to Say "I Don't Speak Russian" in Russian

Transcript

How to say 'I don't speak Russian' in Russian. One way of saying it would be
ya nee guh-vah-ryoo pah roo-skee. Let me break that down. Ya nee guh-vah-
ryoo. The third word hits the last accent. Pah-roo-skee. Roo-skee, which means
Russian, hits the first syllable of that word. Bring it all together. Ya
nee guh-vah-ryoo pah roo-skee. One more time even slower. Ya nee guh-vah-
ryoo pah roo-skee. And now saying it a little bit quicker. Ya nee guh-vah-ryoo
pah roo-skee. Give it a shot. That sounds great.

The other way of saying 'I don't speak Russian' would be ya roo-sko-vo nyeh
zna-yoo. Literally, that means I don't know Russian. Let me break that down
for you. Ya roo-sko-va. The second word, roo-skoo-va, hits the accent on
the first syllable. Nyeh zna-yoo. Zna-yoo is the last word. The accent on
that is on the first syllable. Bring it together. Ya roo-sko-vo nyeh zna-
yoo. One more time nice and slow. Ya roo-sko-vo nyeh zna-yoo. And now slightly
more conversationally, ya roo-sko-vo nyeh zna-yoo. Give it a shot.
That sounds great for someone who doesn't know Russian. That's how you say 'I
don't speak Russian' in Russian.
