Here in Holland we speak Dutch, so both German and English are 'foreign'
languages.
Actually, I'm pretty bad at German, especially compared to English.
But you know, you really don't want to hear the Dutch translations of
computer-related words, they're so silly.
For me in English, they are more abstract, while the Dutch words have a totally
different meaning as well.
I had Dutch version of windows and dos installed in the past, as well as Dutch
versions of MS-Office, and well sometimes it took
me a while to figure out what they meant ... "oh, its just a directory, jeez" or
"they just mean the mouse by that" .. things
like that...

No, I'll stick to English when it comes to computers.
