Is it necessary to study English?

Question

IT education

Hello, I work as a project manager in a small web studio, I would like to learn one of the IT professions. Knowledge of English is weak, there is no desire to study it in depth. Is it possible to master the IT profession without immersion in English? Which options can be eliminated immediately, and which ones should be paid attention to?

Answer 1

Yes, yes, yes, definitely. All current documentation, current books, current questions (stackoverflow) are written exclusively in English. All normal code is written in English. All open source is written in English. All comments are in English. All normal programming languages ​​use English words in their syntax. You do not need to know it at the advanced level, it is enough to understand the documentation, intermediate or maybe even pre-intermediate level is enough.
PS If you have no desire to study something, in particular English, then it is not the right place. There is always something to be learned here. Literally every day, except for those when you and your friends watch football on the weekend.

Answer 2

From experience, it is easier to find a solution to a problem faster on English-language resources, for example, the same stackoverflow.com/.
Of course, you can use the help of Google Translate, BUT it's better to learn how to explain what you want to ask yourself. An in-depth knowledge of the language is not required, BUT knowledge of the base, in my opinion, is mandatory if you want to further connect your life with IT.
