I find quite easy to use programming languages in which keywords are not
in my mother language. As a matter of fact, it is perhaps easier, as
the technical meaning does not conflict with the every day use (I've
sometime problems when I find word I know the technical meaning in a
non technical context).
Note that my mother language is french, it is perhaps not the case for
those which speak languages less apparented with english.
