Eh, those are kinda opaque sequences anyway, since the meanings
aren't quite what the normal dictionary definition is anyway. Look up
"int" in the dictionary... or "void", or even "string". They are just
a handful of magic sequences we learn with the programming language.
(And in languages like Rust, "fn", lol.)
Well, even on top of that, the standard library is full of English
words that read very coherently when used together (if you understand
English).
I can't imagine a long chain of English algorithms with some Chinese
one pasted in the middle looks very good :) I suppose you could alias
them all...
You might get really funny error messages.
