Plus it's just that much more respectful to try. I haver seen people get the cold eye for not even trying but I never saw anyone get in a jam for making the effort. We should just try to imagine how we'd feel if someone came to our hometown and demanded that we speak his language rather than trying our own. That’s exactly right.

My language skill are very imited, but larning even four or five words can open doors and get you help. Pointing, waving a map and a little laughter gets you the rest of the way. Learn simple things like Hello, Thank you, toilet?, yes, no, and 90% of your needs can be covered along wiht gesturing. I agree with Denis.
