Words you Understand [Incomprehensible German Internet Speak] Words you Understand [Incomprehensible German Politics Ref]
To be fair, most languages end up using English words for stuff that's tech related. For example, I've been learning Italian and actually laughed out loud when I learned that the Italian word for coach (which seems to be used for both buses and trains) is "Pullman" it gets even more obvious when it's a computer-related technology
Probably next year I might try to learn a bit of German because I keep encountering Germans writing in German on various parts of the internet and it would be fun to join the club (plus I'd love to visit Germany sometime so that would remove one barrier for sure)
