We do that here as we are not native english speakers. I do that since
the 1st day I used a computer, I do that since every songs on the
local radio is in english and  I do that.. oh sorry, off topic.

Well, english is the language of choice for programming because
everyone understands very basic english words. In a world where a lot
of people from many countries have to work together (even in small
local companies) then yes, english is the choice. You have
documentation and inline docs to document them in your native
language, like the books available in korean, french or russian.
