Non english ubiquitous language   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #6879 of 16018 |
Hi,
I'm currently involved in a project here in Germany where the ubiquitous
language
well... is made of terms in german language. In previous projects we
used to translate
business terms to englisch, because the coding standard was english. Now
that
doesn't seem in right, because the ubiquitous language gets lost in
translation.
On the other hand, using german language for the implementation feels
akward as
well... I wonder how you guys deal with this kind of situation.

cheers
Florian
