Question

I found two collapsing problems :

• You should use the same language between domain experts and development teams (DDD)
• You should use English for naming in your code (.Net Design guidelines)

What if the domain experts don’t speak English ?

Answer 1

• Speaking the same language between the teams will foster understanding. However, does the DDD item mean literal ‘language’ (tongue), or ‘terminology’?
• Using English for coding is a suggestion, not a requirement.
• As long as your development team can translate the code operation/intent, I don’t see the issue.
