I ask because sometimes I feel very silly when writing clumsily in English and even sillier when I have to look up how to spell a particular word.

I want to know if I’m the only idiot that it happens to or if on the contrary it’s something generalized.

(Mi idioma es el Español, por cierto)

    I’ve always been writing comments and using variable names in English, at all jobs I’ve had. Probably also the non-professional code before I started writing code professionally.

    Part of this is that I’ve been working in a lot of companies with non-Swedish speakers, and another part is that it’s just kind of been expected that the code and everything around it is in English.
