Not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I'm going to anyway.

Without fail, every programming language I've ever seen, used or heard of has it's keywords based around English. if, else, while, for, query, foreach, image, path, extension, the list goes on, are all based around English words.

Are there any languages, or ports of languages that base their core keywords based on non-english words to lower the wall for non-english speaking programmers?

This is mostly for intrest (English is my first language so it's no problem for me). Are these languages popular locally (I.E. might a software development house in Germany use a programming language based in German over one based in English).
