What technical terms to know in 3D Programming
Author
For quite sometime I was wondering... There seems a lot of foreign terms to me in 3D programming. So I'm asking this question, what technical terms do I need to know in 3D programming? Thanks!

Perhaps you could specify a particular area, or give an example of a term that is unfamiliar to you.

Agreed. Also I would just get acquainted with as much as you can with the OGL 1.1 spec.
Also read a lot of (good) code, so you learn how to choose proper function names etc. I've seen people code in Dutch, French and even Chinese because they don't know how to put it in English, and it really makes you toes curl. Good function/variable names makes your code easier to understand for other programmers.
