Hum, I recently buy a new computer and from reading the user's guide in
Italian (and other languages) there is no evidence of that.
Now if you are telling us that English is the international language for

And sometimes French words have been adopted (and transformed) in English and
are now used back in French.
The most active community for translation in French is the French part of
Canada, and for them this is kind of a "survival of their culture" thing.
