> try to order in languages I don’t speak

why not? I guarantee it's less offensive than you think to be bad at a language but try anyway. I get the desire to avoid embarrassment - it's something I find really difficult to push through, but you've gotta do a whole lot of speaking badly to speak well, and people are generally very appreciative of someone earnestly trying.

If you met someone in person struggling to speak english, would you be offended? or would you be collaborative like "lets figure this out together"
