You could send a DM stating the same if it’s an online meeting. I’d say something like “Hey xyz, could you kindly comm. in English as there are a few who do not speak our language. Thanks”
Could we kindly ensure our conversation continues in English for better inclusivity?
We can say like this
“Hey [Lead’s Name], can we please switch to English for the rest of the meeting? I want to make sure everyone can understand and join in. Thanks!”
Below is my suggestion regarding how to request the lead to start in English:
Pause and Acknowledge: Briefly wait for a break in the conversation.
Explain and Apologize: “Excuse me [Lead’s name], I apologize for interrupting, but to ensure everyone understands clearly, could we continue in English?”
Offer Help: (Optional) “If there’s anything needing clarification, I’m happy to help translate.”
This approach focuses on clear communication for everyone and avoids putting your lead on the spot about their language choice.
