AInglish
August 21, 2026
I used to write tasks for Claude in English, but lately I gave up and just write them in Russian.
Claude, in turn, uses a pile of Russianized terms, for example:
- "Модзибейк" (mojibake) - broken text encoding
- "Грандфазерство" (grandfathering) - backward compatibility (at first I read it as дедовщина, the Russian word for hazing)
- "Самоматч" (self-match) - when ps aux | grep catches itself
- "Ампутация" (amputation) - removing dead code
My Runglish is getting more advanced by the day. Or is it AInglish?
