View source for Non-English-based programming languages

{{short description|none}}
'''Non-English-based programming languages''' are [[Programming language|programming language]]s that do not use keywords taken from or inspired by [[Social:English language|English]] vocabulary.

== Prevalence of English-based programming languages ==
{{further|English in computing}}

The use of the [[Social:English language|English language]] in the inspiration for the choice of elements, in particular for [[Keyword (computer programming)|keyword]]s in computer programming languages and code libraries, represents a significant trend in the history of language design. According to the HOPL online database of languages,<ref>In HOPL (History of Programming Languages), advanced search finds languages by country.</ref> out of the 8,500+ programming languages recorded, roughly 2,400 of them were developed in the {{wipe|United States}}<!-- I searched for all US entries, then counted pages, multiplied by entries per page -->, 600 in the {{wipe|United Kingdom}}, 160 in {{wipe|Canada}}, and 75 in {{wipe|Australia}}.

Thus, over a third of all programming languages have been developed in countries where English is the primary language. This does not take into account the usage share of each programming language, situations where a language was developed in a non-English-speaking country but used English to appeal to an international audience (see the case of [[Python (programming language)|Python]] from the Netherlands, [[Ruby (programming language)|Ruby]] from {{wipe|Japan}}, and [[Lua (programming language)|Lua]] from {{wipe|Brazil}}), and situations where it was based on another programming language which used English.

== International programming languages ==
The concept of international-style programming languages was inspired by the work of British [[Computer scientist|computer scientist]]s [[Biography:Christopher Strachey|Christopher Strachey]], [[Biography:Peter Landin|Peter Landin]], and others. It represents a class of languages of which the line of the algorithmic languages [[ALGOL]] was exemplary.

===ALGOL 68===

[[ALGOL 68]]'s standard document was published in numerous natural languages. The standard allowed the internationalization of the programming language. On December 20, 1968, the "Final Report" (MR 101) was adopted by the Working Group, then subsequently approved by the General Assembly of [[Organization:UNESCO|UNESCO]]'s IFIP for publication. Translations of the standard were made for [[Social:Russian language|Russian]], [[Social:German language|German]], [[Social:French language|French]], [[Social:Bulgarian language|Bulgarian]], and then later [[Social:Japanese language|Japanese]]. The standard was also available in {{Clarify|date=March 2022|reason=Braille for which language(s)?|text=[[Braille]]}}. ALGOL 68 went on to become the GOST/ГОСТ-27974-88 standard in the [[Place:Soviet Union|Soviet Union]].

In English, Algol68's case statement reads '''case''' ~ '''in''' ~ '''out''' ~ '''esac'''. In [[Social:Russian language|Russian]], this reads '''выб''' ~ '''в''' ~ '''либо''' ~ '''быв'''.

===Citrine===

Localization is the core feature of the [[Citrine (programming language)|Citrine Programming Language]]. Citrine is designed to be translatable to every written human language. For instance the West Frisian language version is called Citrine/FY. Citrine features localized keywords, localized numbers and localized punctuation. Users can translate code files from one language into another using a string-based approach. At the time of writing, Citrine supports 111 human languages. Support is not limited to well-known languages; all natural human languages are being accepted for inclusion, up to EGIDS-6.

===Hedy===

[https://hedycode.com/ Hedy] is a [[Open-source software|open-source]] programming language which was developed for programming education. It was designed to be as instructive as possible and as accessible as possible with a few unique features. It supports over 30 different languages, meaning its keywords can be typed in any of those. It supports languages which do not use the Latin alphabet for its keywords and variable names and it also supports more numbering systems than [[Arabic numerals]], like [[Eastern Arabic numerals]]. All of these can be used interchangeably. The error messages are as verbose as possible, explaining what is wrong and what might be a fix, just like the [[Rust (programming language)|Rust]] compiler.

===Scheme===

While [[Internationalization and localization|Internationalization]] is not a part of any [[Scheme (programming language)|Scheme]] standard, the expressiveness and flexibility of the language allows for the addition of internationalization as a [[Library (computing)|library]].  [https://github.com/metaphorm/international-scheme/ International Scheme] is an [[Open source|open source]] project to which anyone can contribute a translation.  Since translations of Scheme can be loaded as libraries, Scheme programs can be multilingual.

===Scratch===

[[Scratch (programming language)|Scratch]] is a block-based educational language. The text of the blocks is translated into many languages, and users can select different translations. Unicode characters are supported in variable and list names. (Scratch lists are not stored inside variables the way arrays or lists are handled in most languages. Variables only store strings, numbers, and, with workarounds, boolean values, while lists are a separate data type that store sequences of these values.) Projects can be "translated" by simply changing the language of the editor, although this does not translate the variable names.

== Modifiable parser syntax ==
* [http://www.babylscript.com/ Babylscript] – A multilingual version of JavaScript which uses multiple tokenizers to support localized keywords in different languages and which allows objects and functions to have different names in different languages.
* [[Component Pascal]] – A preprocessor that translates native-language keywords into English in an educational version of the [[Software:BlackBox Component Builder|BlackBox Component Builder]] available as open source.[http://www.inr.ac.ru/~info21/software.htm] The translation is controlled via a modifiable vocabulary and supported by modifiable compiler error messages. A complete Russian version is used in education, and it should be possible to accommodate other left-to-right languages (e.g., the [[Social:Kabardian language|Kabardian language]] has been tried as a proof of concept).
* [[HyperTalk]] – A programming language, which allows translation via custom resources, used in [[Company:Apple Inc.|Apple]]'s [[Software:HyperCard|HyperCard]].

* [[Perl]] – While Perl's keywords and function names are generally in English, it allows modification of its parser to modify the input language, such as in [[Biography:Damian Conway|Damian Conway]]'s [http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~damian/papers/HTML/Perligata.html Lingua::Romana::Perligata] module, which allows programs to be written in Latin or Michael G. Schwern's [https://metacpan.org/module/Lingua::tlhInganHol::yIghun Lingua::tlhInganHol::yIghun] Perl language in Klingon. They do not just change the keywords but also the grammar to match the language.
