It doesn't really matter. The key thing is he is trying to speak their language, and that gets respect from the Italians involved.
It doesn't have to be perfect, just trying gets you respect.

On a similar note: ever been to France? Try to get some help at a random place outside your hotel.
Let's see what gets you the best return: ask something in perfect English, or ask something in very bad French.
