It is very weird. But in the old days you got German translated books.
I've read most of my programming books in English as most of the online resources were in English. Reading a German book about C++ with "Vorlagen". Didn't know what they were talking about unti I've used a dictionary and found out that "Vorlagen" are "templates". Was pretty funny that it was easier for me to read programming books in English than in my mother tongue.
- geff82 10y agoThe same goes for me - I can say I learned English by reading tons of documentation and tutorials over the years. And because of strange out-of-the-world translation I also set the language of all my systems to English. If I ever get a problem, I have the right words to google for right in front of me and can profit from a far larger pool of solutions.
