The language is a practical lang, not an esoteric programming language. I don't think it belongs here. ----(this comment by A at 12:34, 1 January 2016 UTC; please sign your comments with ~~~~) 04:09, 26 December 2019 (UTC)
- How would you define a
practical lang
vs.esoteric lang
? To my understanding, this language is at least weird and themed. I'm not sure if it fit the requirement here. Could you make it more clearer as what could be count as a esoteric programming language? --Ts (talk) 05:24, 26 December 2019 (UTC)
- Example: LOLCODE is not an esoteric programming language but rather a weirdlang(i.e. a practical lang with a weird syntax), because it is simply a word-replacement for a general-purpose practical language. The same thing applies to your language, which substitutes a practical language syntax to Chinese character words. ----(this comment by A at 12:34, 1 January 2016 UTC; please sign your comments with ~~~~) 08:46, 26 December 2019 (UTC)
- A weirdlang is typically just a normal language with weird syntax, but nothing else truly esoteric about it. (Also in the Weirdlang page) ----(this comment by A at 12:34, 1 January 2016 UTC; please sign your comments with ~~~~) 08:50, 26 December 2019 (UTC)
- First of all, the language is not mine, design nor implementation. And, it certainly not a word-replacement for some general-purpose practical language. Also, you had mentioned that
An Esoteric programming language is a computer programming language designed ... rather than for practical use
. I don't think this language is suitable for any practical use. And this seems meet your requirement. --Ts (talk) 01:13, 27 December 2019 (UTC)
