In my experience people like it that you're learning their language and are not another "ugly American" expecting the rest of the world to accomodate you in speaking English.
So if someone saw that negatively, I woudl wonder about the unusual reaction, and whether I'm dealing with a negative person in general.
Now, if someone can only say yes or no in that language, and tries to say he'sthere to learn the language on a 2-week trip, then I would expect that person'smotives to be questioned.
