Comment on Teaching kids to program in their native languageparent

Comments

Identifiers in some languages will not work well for programming, if those languages require declension for verbs, or casing for nouns. The resulting programs look like the broken grammar of a foreigner.

Yet, by the same token, (pun absolutely intended) introducing cases and declensions into a programming language is a bad idea.
