This is the written sentence: 「喋れるの？喋れないの？喋れないなら喋れないって言えよ」- meant to say "Can you speak? Can’t you speak? If you can’t speak, just say that you can’t."
Here is a correction provided by someone who claimed to be N1 (yes, they gave even a link to a video):
Grammar wrong
喋れないなら喋れないで言えhttps://youtu.be/YMQflZaqCXs
Refer here.
Was the initial sentence correct? Or was the correction provided by the N1 person correct? I have asked others before about the corrected sentence as 「喋れないなら喋れないで言え」and they have told me they didn't understand what it meant, and quote:
Makes no sense cuz it means say without speaking (potential form) lmaooo
it makes literally no sense
I thought I should ask in here to see if I can get better insights.
