Ah, let me remind you something I learned from the inspiring talks about "good practices about talks", by someone who's a longstanding D-W activist, namely Meike Reichle: never apologize for your bad English. There are indeed many reasons for this: - people will notice, anyway, that your English is not perfect - you will make those whose English is worse ashamed - non native speakers are sometimes easier to understand than native ones, so be proud of your bad English instead..:-) - as Francesca says: you can even be creative by inventing words: Italglish, Germish, Frenglish, etc. are much more fun than genuine English, though Italglish and Frenglish are surprisingly close to each other..:) (this post is also a way to see if Meike is still listening around...)
