Isn't it Quebec(Canada) you're thinking about?
Ive never seen french code in my jobs, it's in English, Most Frameworks are in English anyway so why would they code in French
PHP Symfony is from a french company, and it's in English, docs also available in English
And there might be translation of english words in French yes, how is it crazy, that's the definition of a language otherwise we would all have the same words for everything and therefore the same language
As a SW Engineer from Germany, you will be surprised how much code exists in other languages. But I would expect companies on the edge of technology, who are either working closely with universities or with open source, that they usually chose English.
In Quebec all code must be in both official languages, Maple and C
