I'm not sure what you mean by "default".  Without 'use English', variables
with one-character names can only be referred to by those one-character
names.  'use English' allows you to use their long and short English names
as well, but even with 'use English' you can still use the one-character
names.  'use English' has no effect on @ARGV, because @ARGV only has one
name.
