The Three Phrases To Know

When I travel,
before getting on that plane, train or ship,
I ensure that I know at least
three basic phrases in the native language (s)….
Hello,
Do you speak English?,
and
Thank you. 

This isn’t about communicating obviously. 
If the answerer says yes to the second question,
I could have as easily used English. 

This is about making a connection
and showing respect.
