This is my reasoning for using the term 'polluted'. I primarily use English interfaces (except for the select few times I'm handed a Danish one), because English at least maintains one thing I like: Consistency.
The sad thing is there are decent technical terms translated into Danish, but no one uses them, because they never gained traction, so instead English words are used instead. I generally avoid these words when speaking, because I honestly don't like them.
Most particularly, the word 'computer' bothers me like no other when speaking Danish, that I always avoid it. Usually I use »maskine« (machine) or the original Danish word for computer, »datamat«, if I feel so inclined.
