Hi, I work in the Italian Healthcare System and we use DDD to model our domain. We started using English terms to model our first subdomain, but soon we discovered that the translation between many of the italian terms our domain experts use had a cost (and sometimes we made horrible mistakes too): it just adds another burden between you and your domain experts. We do not have short term plans to outsource our product, nor to move it ourside Italy any soon, so we decided to just stop doing the translation and use whatever term our doctors/domain experts use (beeing it english or italian terms). It has a cost, but you can always do renaming at a later time if it's needed or worth it. cheers Alessandro
