# Do the Chefs Speak My Language?
## Check if a chef speaks your language and ensure smooth communication during your culinary experience.
Most chefs on our platform are fluent in their local language and often proficient in a second language, such as English, French, or others. Their language skills reflect their diverse cultural experiences and international backgrounds.
If you want to confirm if your chef speaks your language, feel free to connect with them by following the next steps:
**Chat with the chefs (After receiving proposals)**
1. Go to [My Shopping](https://www.takeachef.com/en-pt/extranet/users/user-request) to see your requests.
2. On the request you want to check, Click on **See Proposals**.
3. Under **My Proposals**, locate the chef you’d like to chat with and click **See Proposal**.
4. Go to the **Messages** tab, type your message, and hit **Send Message** to start a conversation.
**Confirmed Booking:** After booking, you’ll receive the chef’s phone details to have a direct conversation, and ensure everything, including language preferences, is perfectly arranged for your day.
**Request Form:** If you need a chef who speaks a specific language, like French, Italian, or another, include this detail in the comments section of the [request form](https://www.takeachef.com/en-en/wizard/default?card=card_outreach)before submitting your request.
This will help us connect you with chefs who best meet your requirements.
