Inquiring about language skills.
Contexto cultural
Norwegians are very proficient in English, so you will almost always get a 'Yes'. Similar to Sweden and Denmark, English is widely spoken. English is the de facto language in many Norwegian corporate offices. In very remote areas, older generations might speak less English, but it's still worth asking.
Keep it simple
You don't need to add extra words. 'Snakker du engelsk?' is perfect.
Add 'Unnskyld'
Adding 'Unnskyld' (Excuse me) makes you sound much more polite.
