Developing in English

This course is about:
 How to do software development in English
 How to communicate with other people about software development
 How to understand what they mean when you’re working with them

Your experience:
Probably, most of your software development knowledge comes from reading and you have very little experience talking about software development or listening to other people talking about software development.

Consequently:
You´re likely to have learned most of terms from a page, so you’re not sure how to pronounce them. For example, how do you pronounce the following words?
Cache /kæʃ/: a part of a computer’s memory that stores copies of data that is often needed while a program is running. This data can be accessed very quickly.
o Yep! The same way you pronounce cash /kæʃ/
o Words that sound the same are called homophones.

Queue /kjuː/: a list of items of data stored in a particular order.
o Yep! Cue /kjuː/ is pronounced the same.

Segue /ˈseɡweɪ/: to move smoothly from one song, subject, place, etc. to another.
o According to Oxford Learners Dictionary it comes from Italian, literally ‘follows’.

Genre /ˈʒɑːnrə/: a particular type or style of literature, art, film or music that you can recognize because of its special features.

o Protip: (Internet slang, often sarcastic) A tip given by a professional.
Native English speakers also make a lot of mistakes in the opposite direction. They have problems with homophones. So, they miswrite homophones like its/it’s, capital/capitol, principle/principle, meet/meat.
So, no worries, we all make mistakes 😉 just learn from them.

Focus /ˈfəʊkəs/
Debugger /ˌdiːˈbʌɡər/ a computer program that helps to find and correct mistakes in other programs.
Array /əˈreɪ/ a way of organizing and storing related data in a computer memory.
Java /ˈdʒɑːvə/ coffee.
Hardcoded /ˌhɑːrd ˈkəʊdɪd/ to write data so that it cannot easily be changed.
Deployed /dɪˈplɔɪd/ to install, test and implement a computer system or application.
Gigabyte /ɡɪɡə/ 109, or 1 000 000 000
Data /ˈdætə/ it´s also pronounce /ˈdeɪtə/ both in American and British English. [uncountable, plural]. The singular form is datum.
You may say “pieces of data” or “piece of data" to avoid confusion.

Acronym:
API /eɪ/ /piː/ /aɪ/ a set of programming tools that enables a program to communicate with another program or an operating system, and that helps software developers create their own applications (= pieces of software) (the abbreviation for ‘application programming interface’).

Quizlet: Inglés para Developers [2022 - Platzi]

👋Hey Devs! I just created some units in Quizlet with the vocabulary and phrases in this course.
.
📚Quizlet is a very famous app to study and create Learning Cards.
I suggest that you study on the ‘Fichas’ mode and set Quizlet to show you the definitions first (I put the clues on ‘Definition’) and try to remember the term on the other side of the card (I put the term to remember on ‘Terms’).
.
🎉Hope this is useful for you!

Ok, if you need to learn how to pronounce something, you can search on Google how to pronounce (“your word”)

If you do this, Google will teach you how to pronounce it, and obviously, you can practice simultaneously.

The course that I needed, very excited to get started. 😁

Debugger pronunciation

Focus pronunciation

Genre pronunciation

Thanks so much for this course, I watched the first video and i feel that is a little advanced, however I will continue because it look really interesting.

Thank you fo this!!!

I’ve been learning English by reading documentation of some technologies, and I’ve learned how to use some tools in my browser that help me to figure it out how to pronounce some strange words when reading. I use: “Quick Translation” and “Readme - Text to Speech TTS”: the first one is for to know the meaning of some words in my native language (Spanish in this case), and the second one is for hearing the pronunciation of a selected word or paragraph. They’re awesome and very useful!

• Queue = A list of things in order to arrange.
• Don’t pretend to be perfect.
• Even the native speakers make mistakes.
• Even if you think you are pronouncing well, you could be making mistakes.

Cool

foukes

I was surprised by the course. very true I didnt even know I was not pronouncing those words correctly

Ufff, no había visto este curso, creo que puede ayudarnos a muchos.

Excited about its coming!

How to pronounce FOCUS correctly and don’t be embarrasing for a pronunciation mistake.

American English Pronunciation Lesson

Esta primera lección es súper acertada, la mayoría creo aprendemos inglés con la lectura y por eso nuestra pronunciación a veces falla.
.
Pero que genial contar con este curso como herramienta para aprender a defendernos en el mundo de la tecnología.
.
Desde que el profe pronunció correctamente Queue, mi mente explotó 🤯 y entendí que este era un curso para mí.
.
Éxito a todos los que se sumen 💪🏻.

I know what you mean by mispronounce FOCUS. It happened to me as well. It was funny, but not funny haha, funny weird.

Be careful with the way you mention SAP technology. In Spanish we say “SAP” but in English you should say each letter like “ES-EI-PI”

Wow, al principio me asusté porque todo era en inglés pero soy capaz de entender casi todo

The classes are good, I have learned a lot about the pronunciation of many words that I used to pronounce wrong

Algo de lo que me he dado cuenta luego de estudiar una carrera en ciencias exactas y ahora estudiar programación, es que en áreas técnicas y de ciencias se tiende a “españolizar” palabras del inglés porque en español no existe una traducción directa de dichas palabras y, si existieran, casi nadie las usa. De ahí es donde radica la importancia de utilizar cada palabra correctamente porque nos acostumbramos a “españolizar” las palabras y luego cuando llega la hora de utilizarlas con personas de habla inglesa no nos comprenden.

La palabra que más utilizo es “giga” y estaba pronunciando mal

I’m so proud to start this course

Entrando al curso y ya me salta el detalle de por que en los subtitulos dice curso y en el dialogo no lo menciona el instructor XD. Ahí vamos todos dudosos si acabaremos el curso en esta semana.

You really surprised me with the pronunciation of “Giga”. I expected any word less that one.
