Am I speaking right? vs Did i said it right?

The correct phrase is 'Did I say it right?' as it uses the past tense 'said' instead of 'say'. The first phrase is incorrect due to the use of 'am' instead of 'did'. Both phrases are asking about the correctness of something said, but the second one is the grammatically correct option.
