Have you actually tried to rewrite something? I mean: ever in your life?

Sure, you need to know two languages, but most of the time you have to be an expert only in target language, you need to have only very rough understanding of source language.

Otherwise these projects that replace COBOL with Java would have been entirely impossible (and in reality only half of them fail).
