"Sprechen Sie Englisch?" is German for "Do you speak English?"

That's what the four penguins said in the Dreamworks animation film, "Madagascar" ;). They asked Marty the zebra this, hoping they arrived in Antartica, although they still found themselves in Manhattan, New York. It means "Do you speak english?"

Spreckenze means do you speak in German I think..so it's just a play on languages.
