Earlier quoted context omitted.
A lot of the best programmers I know are foreigners, and they learned English and their respective programming languages side by side. It is a lot more useful to know English to search and ask for programming help in, than to seek help from natives of your language whose skill set may be very minimal and may not be of any use, or worse, they may suggest poor programming practice.
You did read that I was talking about an 8 year old kid who is learning the words "clothes" and "red" in school? Still a few years to go to ask for and look for programming help in English.
A lot of programmers I know start young, maybe not that young though, my apologies. I know people who started at age 12 or so. I started looking at programming maybe at 11 years of age or 10, I didn't get anything till years later, it takes time and practice.
