How many words are in a 3 minute speech?

Keep in mind I'll be talking in French, and i'm not very good at it, so that might slow me down a bit. Plus i'll be showing a powerpoint while I talk. Thank you!

    Average speech rate is 110 words per minute. You'd need 330 words. However, because you'll be speaking more slowly in French, consider about 200 words. Even fewer if there is verbiage on the PP slides. Good luck.

    Everyone speaks at a different speed. You'll have to time it.
