Hard to believe nowadays. I rather do hope that those articles have been 
translated properly (not some automatic Google-translation) to English 
by now.

That reminds me of the episode of Feynman's "Surely You're Joking, Mr. 
Feynman!" book, where he tries to learn Portugese and is able to talk to 
a dentist (?) without much problems because all the domain-specific 
vocabulary is basically the same in almost all Latin-based languages. 
However, he couldn't understand a single word of what people talked 
about in the streets.
