Growing up (Generation Commodore 64, later having an Amiga) taught me enough computing lingo that I one day started to read English books. Because at some point the really interesting books didn't have German translations anymore.
So there I was struggling with my English, always being happy when there were enough technical terms which I understood. (And worst thing of all - English speaking authors dare to use puns and humour in technical books. Which I didn't understand, because of the vocabulary and because we Germans would never do anything like this, we're much too serious for that.)
