Can I Interpret That For You?

If it's English to English, no problem. Anything else, problem. So I was asked today to do some loose interpreting of Filipino to a client for Kathie, my workmate. Only problem is, the guy really couldn't understand me. I went on saying, "hindi ako marunong mg salita ng tagalog" and of course he understood that. Basically, I just told him that I don't speak Filipino in Filipino. I'm pretty sure I thoroughly confused him. I even asked him to speak to me in Filipino, but he didn't understand my English too well. Then he hung up.
I think I want to learn...French.
