Grr. (Dear Tokusatsu muses)

Dear Tokusatsu muses:

日本語をあんまり話しません！　英語を話しますください。

(Apologies for my terrible Japanese for anybody who can read that.)

I hate it when my muses forget that my native language is English, and my Japanese is not good, and that they need to enable the translator.

You've got two typos; one spelling and one conjugation mistake. :) Without the typos, it would be, "日本語をあまり話しません。英語を話してください。" The ん in あまり was the spelling typo and when using -ください the verb needs to be in the -て form. :)

Geesh, no wonder the muses enabled the muse-to-author translator in a hurry after that. :) I'd forgotten about conjugating to the -te form with kudasai. (I had to take a small break from Japanese to work on a bit of Swedish; obviously, I need to get back to it immediately after I get back from my trip.)
