in reply to Polyglot Challenges
I started learning Perl as my first programming language, in 1996, at age 35. I started learning Tagalog the next year. Neither looked like English to me.
We have a place in the Philippines now and my Perl is much better then my Tagalog. Of course when learning Tagalog I wasn't constantly reminded to RTFM. It still takes me longer to travel through Manila then a Perl program, even if I RTFMap ;-)
