How do you say speak English in Russian?

There are two ways to say "speak English" in Russian, depending on the context:

1. Говорить по-английски (govorit' po-angliyski) - This is the most common and versatile way to say "speak English". It translates literally as "speak in English".

2. Знать английский язык (znat' angliyskiy yazyk) - This translates to "know the English language". It implies a more general understanding and proficiency in the language, rather than just speaking it.

Here's how you might use them in a sentence:

* "I speak English" - Я говорю по-английски (Ya govoryu po-angliyski)

* "Do you speak English?" - Вы говорите по-английски? (Vy govorite po-angliyski?)

* "He knows English" - Он знает английский язык (On znaet angliyskiy yazyk)

Both phrases are correct, but the choice depends on the context and what you want to emphasize.
