Do you speak English?

The other night I was at a samba and saw a pretty "morena" dancing alone, so the gentleman that I am, I asked her to dance. She accepted and we started dancing. Well, she was terrible. I'm no Fred Astaire, but I've learned how to do my little thing when dancing samba as a couple and if the woman gets it I do ok. Well, this girl is bouncing around and really stiff. I politely tell her to relax and she asks me if I speak English. I thought, "Oh, she knows I'm not Brazilian". But she asked in English and the accent wasn't Brazilian. It turned out she was Italian! So, I said to her, "Oh, in that case, I'm going to tell you how to dance!"
