the equivalent of 'to speak broken english' for French would be "parler petit nègre". The expression is becoming less common nowadays (some people find it disparaging or even offensive towards black people). "parler petit nègre" means using very simple words and not bothering about grammar or conjugation.

Another common expression is "parler français comme une vache espagnole" (speak French as a Spanish cow), that is, very badly.
