Same here in Italy. I just went through an even worse "translation hell" in a 
Psion application meant to syncronize a palmtop's agenda (etc.) with Lotus 
Organizer. I had to search around for hours and guess at the English names 
and pathnames to be entered instead of the documented/default Italian ones 
(and vice-versa) to make that link work at last.

The only exception I'd probably make for using standard English names in 
programming is primary school.
