What do you call someone who speaks two languages? Bilingual. What do you call someone who speaks only one language? An American. The question is pretty much how Americans traveling abroad greet the locals.
Saying "Do you speak English?" can either get you around or get you kidnapped, tortured, killed and having your family discover your fate on CNN anywhere around the world. Asking the question is ok in a place where you see a McDonald's. It is not ok and you should avoid places where electricity and potable water are a luxury to ask the question.

phrase used after someone says something to you, but you have no idea what the hell he/she is talking about.

A question you ask someone to determine if "Jawn" is a part of their regular vocabulary, and thus whether they speak in an Eastern Pennsylvanian dialect. Jawn is a slang pronoun that originated in Philly. It can be used to refer to any person, place, or thing.
Billy: "Do you speak Jawn?"
Bob: "What the fuck is a John?"
Billy: "Clearly you don't. I guess you're not from Philly."
