Hi - I'm going to a wedding in a small town in North Wales next month. We have been sent the invite with hotel list. Obviously place names/hotel names are all in Welsh language.
Here's my dilemma. When I phone up to book a room, do I assume they speak English, and talk away without making the effort to at least say 'hello' in Welsh (like a bad Brit abroad).
Or do I say 'Do you speak English?' and sound really patronising.
I really have no idea
Thanks
