I had to ask seemingly "dumb" questions a lot when I started programming. I switched to software after having been a classical musician for many years and the transition in just learning a whole new world of vocabulary and how everything worked was pretty rough for about a year. Luckily, there were enough patient people to help me get through that and answer my questions. I wanted to learn to program pretty badly, I just didn't have the background to converse fluently right away.
