So if you have a concept that doesn't have an equivalent in English you just kinda translate it and add a comment for other people of your language to understand what it is?


Sure. And for a concept that's so foreign there is no English equivalent, I hope there's plenty of documentation. I mean, to each their own, but for me, a software team using native language for variables is a red flag.


You could also transliterate it into the English alphabet. Looks ugly but saves you from having to switch your keyboard layout.
