And if "Plain English" does stick around, will others, such as "Français Ordinaire", "Español Llano", and the like, step up to be counted? That might make RC very cluttered. --[[User:Enter your username|Enter your username]] ([[User talk:Enter your username|talk]]) 06:26, 16 September 2020 (UTC)
 
:You're annoyed Plain English programs look like task descriptions? I am sure the language creators would consider that high praise. You seem to be under the impression that this language is a toy or a joke. I invite you to take a look at Plain English's compiler, which is written in Plain English. It may quickly alleviate you of that impression, as it did me. I wouldn't be submitting examples for this language if I didn't believe it is a serious language with something to offer.
 
:Regarding your concerns about efficiency, I am somewhat mystified why this is even a concern for the (intentionally) trivial tasks I have been submitting to (for now). How much more efficient would you like basic language constructs, loops and type conversions to be? --[[User:Chunes|Chunes]] ([[User talk:Chunes|talk]]) 11:36, 16 September 2020 (UTC)
