not at all :) actually I think we prefer when people use our language to communicate instead of english, even if their Italian isn't that great. We do appreciate the effort and if your mother tongue is English that's even better cause you choose to use another language.
We are quite understanding with foreigners.. if you go to a bar or a restaurant and make your order in Italian mispronouncing some words, we don't usually correct you in a snobbish way.

I think that we, as Italian people, love to meet tourist or foreigners who try to do their best to speak our mother tongue. Also, I really doubt that someone can really be upset with someone who mispronounce something. :) That said I'm a person who tries to correct other's mistakes when they talk in Italian but I don't do it in bad way, just to thank the person whom I talking with for their effort. :)
