I don't find the habit of mixing languages disturbing. It looks a bit ridiculous - but it might be quite usefull. With it you have much more expressive power than when you stick strictly to English.

That said I would not recommend it - since there is rarely the situation where your code will be read only by people speaking your language.

    Yes, for example having the variables and code in an English-like form and the comments in another language entirely. This is useful when the docs are supposed to be written in the comment language.
