+## English language
+
+Use English language when naming your variables and functions.
+
+```js
+/* Bad */
+const primerNombre = 'Gustavo'
+const amigos = ['Kate', 'John']
+
+/* Good */
+const firstName = 'Gustavo'
+const friends = ['Kate', 'John']
+```

+> Like it or not, English is the dominant language in programming: the syntax of all programming languages is written in English, as well as countless documentations and educational materials. By writing your code in English you dramatically increase its cohesiveness.

 ## Naming convention
 
 Pick **one** naming convention and follow it. It may be `camelCase`, or `snake_case`, or anyhow else, it does not matter. What matters is for it to remain consistent.
