because can

Hello there Russian bros,

why is:
"govorit po russki"
incorrect, but
"govorit na russkom"
is?

>>67656820
Because there are always some dumbasses who want to be fined for a good amount of money and recieve fresh amount of pizdyuls.

Both versions are ok.

>>67661586
Is there a difference in meaning?
I asked a native speaker if the following is correct:
"Ya ne mogu govorit po russki"
but he said it should be "na russkom".

>>67661586
Down here in Yugoslavia, govoriti po rusko is the Slovenian language term and govorit na ruskom is the Serbo-Croatian term and they are mutually exclusive (incorrect in the other language).

>>67661655
In formal speech you can't say "govorit na russkom", you need to add "govorit na russkom yazike".

Why do Russians do this?

>>67661655
ne mogu implies that somebody or something prevents you from speaking

>>67661655
Actually "Ya ne mogu govorit na russkom" would sound way more weirder. "Po russki" is perfectly ok. There is no practical difference in meaning but if you are really interested. Govorit' na //languagename// meant the same what it is in english-to speak some language. Govorit po russki literally means to speak in a russian way, so these phrases just have different origins but both came to practically the same meaning.

Thank you for the explanations!
Although the original sentence I asked about was actually "Ya POKA ne mogu govorit po russki".
Does that make any difference?

>>67661735
that's really interesting, actually.
are these terms generally mutually inteligible?

>>67662355
>Does that make any difference?
Nope.

>>67662355
It's incorrect. Either use "na russkom yazike" or "po russki".

>>67662484
>Either use "na russkom yazike" or "po russki".
He actually said пo-pyccки.

>>67662565
My bad.

>>67662355
To speak 'on' some language would sound strange to a Slovene, but the meaning can be gathered from context, and is passed on through exposure to Serbo-Croatian via holidays in Croatia. So, no but yes.

>>67656820
Cuz they knows to do and you no

Summer house, catches the light better. Also leave more room for the pool.

You may choose one:
A. Because they can.
B. To amuse you.
C. Vodka.

unlike the OP, that one is not stupid and awful though, that one is actually cool because it is actually architecturally integrated into the building. OP's monstrosity is not.
