Can I say: It’s speaking about a prank?

Question

Answer

Hi Hafsa,

In standard English, your sentences don't need either "speaking" or "talking." I would express your conversation as below:

- What is the video about?
- It’s about a prank.

You may add "talking" (not "speaking") if you change focus from the video to the people in the video, like the following:

- What are they talking about in the video? 
- They're talking about a prank.

In general, "talking" is preferred with "about."

- O What are you talking about? 
- X What are you speaking about?

I hope that helps answer your question. ^__^

Answer

I would say "talking" is better. Sounds more natural to my ear (native British English)
