Hello,
How would you ask how to say a specific word in Russian, in Russian? That is, I want to ask in Russian: "How do you say [...] in Russian", where the ellipsis is some random english word that I wish to learn how to say in Russian.
The closest I can figure is: "Как ты говоришь [...] по-русски?" I'm not sure if this would be the correct way to phrase the question, though--Я плохо говорю по-русски.
Thanks

As simple as this: "Как по-русски [...]?" - What's the Russian for [...]? I think you can read Russian, but for others who are probably interested I would add that it sounds like "Kak pa roosky [..]?"
Ah, simple indeed, and shorter too ^_^
Спасибо!
