While NPT (US) and BSPT (UK) are different, 1/2" and 3/4" variants are both 14 threads per inch and are similar enough to intermate, but are unlikely to seal. Since sealing is not a requirement here it ought to be good enough.
Failing that, maybe one of our members on the continent would send you a short piece for a nominal fee. As I understand it, all continental European plumbing that is not hard metric is BSPT, and most is not hard metric so it's a hardware store item.
