I've observed a connection between lovers of computer languages, and lovers of human languages.

If you are interested in coding or linguistics, are you interested in both or just one of of the two? If only one interests you, which one and why? If both interest you, do they seem related to one another?

I wish. I speak spanish natively and english to a level I will codeswitch, very inconvenient among the older generation. I also learnt italian up to a B1 (and pass as italian, if the amount of people asking where from italy I'm from is any indication) and have a passing knowledge of german, enough to grasp the meaning of anything written down, as long as it's not too complex.

Coding wise? Unless you consider html, css, and rudimentary knowledge of javascript coding, I'm not computer fluent.
