You know, when I look at Russian Cyrillic, or Greek letters, it looks
like squiggles. I've never studied it, so I have no means to relate it
to sounds, let alone meanings.
So, when people say, "I can't read Perl", it only tells me they
haven't studied it.

Curiously even though I haven't studied Python, I don't remember the last time I had difficulty reading a Python script, whereas even though I did study Perl, quite often I have difficulties reading Perl.
No, this can't be because Perl is harder to read than Python, impossible!

And in natural languages, I have never learned Interlingua, but still I can read it...
