My experience with German programming languages is with Siemens PLC's, since the programming language changes together with the IDE when you set the language to German. Looking at Structured Text / Instruction List having U (und) instead of A (and) operator and bunch of other things was interesting.

But IIRC there were also higher programming languages that are in other languages? Wasn't there one for arabic? Was this it: https://github.com/nasser/---/
- There's also Alef, which I thought was the only Arabic programming language 'till now.
  
  Edit: after searching around, there seems to be lots of Arabic scripting and programming languages, most are discontinued:
  
  Abjad
  
  Alef
  
  Amuriyah
  
  Ankaa "Phoenix"
  
  Jeem (Where's Baa'?)
  
  Kalimat
  
  Qalb
  
  As an Arab, I now want to learn to code in Qalb so I can romantically say that I know the workings of the heart <3
  
  Also, how about we make a programming language called ب and have it just stand for برمجه ("Barmaja": literally programming in Arabic)
  
  Maybe that was the one I've originally seen. Not sure which one :D
  
  The pain is real. Now I wanna design/implement a programming language in the Egyptian dialect (j/k. fuck no)
  
  (j/k. fuck no)
  
  There's already an Egyptian and a Moroccan Wikipedia version. The Qalb language uses the Lebanese dialect. Don't give them ideas, the threat is real.
- Of course.. even an Arabic programming language has a recursive acronym name
