I try to speak in very simple sentences when speaking English. I only correct my Thai wife's English when it leads to a misunderstanding.
When my wife asked "have lope?", I could not understand because I forgot to replace "L" with "R". My wife of 18 years cannot say "Larry" and so I just adopted a Thai pronunciation of my name "La-Lee".
