The Translation of “Speaking Spanish”

Asked by Chris on April 13, 2020

Question

I'm writing Russian subtitles for an English movie. In one scene, a character starts speaking Spanish. If I were writing English subtitles I would display [speaking Spanish] while the character was speaking. In Russian, though, would I display [говорит по-испански] or [говоря по-испански]... or something else altogether?

Answer

Hi Chris,

The correct translation would be говорит по-испански.
