Read the thread and it looks like 'crying in wilderness' as you get
responses from every imaginable 'mother tongue' of the responder.
So I will join in.
Start with something basic and invest the time till you can 'speak
freely', the transfer to any other language will be a calculated
decision then, understanding why and what for.
My way was influenced by then 'new' Borlands TurboPascal v.3 which could
have 128 letters long names of variables and programming for non-english
speaking users it was very convenient to represent variables in long
'Camel style' names.

If you _want_ to learn, nothing can stop you.
