-Make them laugh. This is easy because you're foreign. Just do some weird foreign shit. They will almost definately know some English so use lines like "In my country girls are more....xxx". Etc.
Dont bet on that they will understand or dare speak english...
And the comment about using your accent means that you presuppose that he speaks the language well enough to say something in it. Apart from that, in my experience, if I know the language I always start doing the opener in english (it is a DHV to be english speaking and it sets a good frame). If they dont understand... Speak their language.
If you dont speak anything at all and they dont speak english, you are more or less screwed, no communication, no pickup. Unless you can project your personality non verbally. If you are in a party, club etc, HAVE FUN! BE SEEN! SMILE!!!! BE ACTIVE!!!!
And if they speak only a bit of english, use simple sentences, slow down. Use gestures. Act!
Trust me, I got quite a lot of gaming girls I can barely sommunicate with...
