If you don't want to throw in unreadables, find one or two common errors a second language speaker might make when using English.
For example, Hungarians often mix up he/she as they don't have gender in their pronouns. Hungarians also don't have many prepositions and often omit or mix up English ones). Spanish speaker might put phrases in a different order....
There's a character in one of Christopher Isherwood's Berlin novels who always says "I find" instead of "I think" when she talks to the narrator in English. I don't know the exact reason for that, but it's a nice detail.
