Would it be “je parle tres mal francais” or “je parle francais tres mal”? I know with the literal translation, wouldn’t the first one be “I speak very bad French” and the second be “I speak French very bad”. Are either of them correct? What should I say to an actual French speaking person?

Je parle français comme une vache espagnole
That is what French people say in relation to English when they speak it badly.
