Are all programming languages based on English? - eviltoast

If you’re from a non English speaking country, do you first have to learn English if you want to get into programming?

    Honestly, no. I do know English, however the syntax is always very far removed from actual sentences and learning how to use the syntax is way different from how languages work.

    That said, you’re kinda porked when it comes to reading through documentations, APIs, and watching tutorials, as most of them are in English.

    I do have about 2 friends though who can code and are not particularly versed in English.
