- lou1306 8y agoI would like to add that Italians tend to borrow English words a lot. (In the 19th century it was the same, but with French; ancient Romans were similarly fascinated by Greek). There may be multiple reasons for that. In IT, English terms (kernel, firmware, bootloader, driver, etc.) are usually preferred because translations might be more ambiguous. In other cases, English just sounds more exotic/sophisticated to the average listener.
