in reply to Natural language of monks.

Take a look at the recent thread Polyglot Challenges. It has some very interesting answers. As for me: I don't participate in German programming forums, but my CS education mostly is in German :) (I do attend one class in English, though, done by a very funny professor from Indiana). For more, see my comments at Re: Polyglot Challenges.

I think it would be an interesting poll question, but I dimly remember there has already been one about continents of origin.

    Ah - that was really close. Although I concentrate more on the participation in discussion than learning Perl in general.

      The issue of the community's language was raised in a few posts during the discussion. It certainly helps a lot to learn a programming language when you have peers to talk to.

      Have you thought about attending a PerlMongers group? There seems to be no group in Warsaw yet (or even in the whole of Poland, for that matter). Maybe you can find a few local Perl people and start a group of your own.
