I'm an developer from last 10 years, but I had not done code reviews. My colleague asked me to review code which was written in Python but I am not aware of Python.
Does it make any sense at all to review code in a language I don't know?
As a programmer if I say then it should be Yes. Even if you are not aware of any other semantics of a programming language, you should have to still read characters and notice inconsistent formatting, missing comments, badly chosen identifiers, obvious duplication etc in the codding of the program which will ultimately make much sense, or enough sense to the cost your time.
This depends on your position in your organization, if the importance of code reviews in the workflow of your team, and several other factors that we can't quantify well enough.
