Can I ask who really speaks armenian???.........I mean no "zargon", but "clean" armenian. I just, when i was in armenia at 2000, I was shoping there. I asked saleswomen in armenian and she respond me in russian. I think that bad.........why armenian people must speak with another armenians in russian. If I born there (IF I LIVES THERE!!!) so i must speak armenian, or not???

Russian is a slavic language and it has nothing to do with Armenia.

Looks like you don't even know more recent history. Type in "Soviet Union" on Google

P.S. We don't need to be taught about our own language. Thanks!

It has much more to do with Armenian than "rabiz" and other vile turko-semitic dialects many Armenians speak in the Diaspora.

I didnt want to hurt your pro Russian feelings created during the Soviet era, but Armenians are not slavs neither the Armenian language has nothing to do with anything slavic.

Russian language has nothing to do with Armenia .Western Armenian is an Armenian dialect,with all the foreign elements it carries. Russian is a foreign slavic language.
