I'm mainly a Python programmer, and it is often described as being "executable pseudo-code". I have used a little bit of AppleScript, which seems to be the most English-like programming language I have ever seen, because almost operators can be words, and it lets you use "the" anywhere (for example, this stupid example I just came up with:
set the firstnumber to 1
set the secondnumber to 2
if the firstnumber is equal to the secondnumber then
set the sum to 5
end if
is a valid AppleScript program. Are there any programming languages that are even more English-like than these?
If you mean inconsistent in application of rules with lots of bizarre edge cases and sharp corners to injure the learner, there's very few programming languages more English-like than C++.
