Language \Lan"guage\, n. [OE. langage, F. langage, fr. L. lingua
the tongue, hence speech, language; akin to E. tongue. See
Tongue, cf. Lingual.]
[1913 Webster]
1. Any means of conveying or communicating ideas;
specifically, human speech; the expression of ideas by the
voice; sounds, expressive of thought, articulated by the
organs of the throat and mouth.
[1913 Webster]

Note: Language consists in the oral utterance of sounds which
usage has made the representatives of ideas. When two
or more persons customarily annex the same sounds to
the same ideas, the expression of these sounds by one
person communicates his ideas to another. This is the
primary sense of language, the use of which is to
communicate the thoughts of one person to another
through the organs of hearing. Articulate sounds are
represented to the eye by letters, marks, or
characters, which form words.
[1913 Webster]

2. The expression of ideas by writing, or any other
instrumentality.
[1913 Webster]

3. The forms of speech, or the methods of expressing ideas,
peculiar to a particular nation.
[1913 Webster]

4. The characteristic mode of arranging words, peculiar to an
individual speaker or writer; manner of expression; style.
[1913 Webster]

Others for language all their care express. --Pope.
[1913 Webster]

5. The inarticulate sounds by which animals inferior to man
express their feelings or their wants.
[1913 Webster]

6. The suggestion, by objects, actions, or conditions, of
ideas associated therewith; as, the language of flowers.
[1913 Webster]

There was . . . language in their very gesture.
--Shak.
[1913 Webster]

7. The vocabulary and phraseology belonging to an art or
department of knowledge; as, medical language; the
language of chemistry or theology.
[1913 Webster]

8. A race, as distinguished by its speech. [R.]
[1913 Webster]

All the people, the nations, and the languages, fell
down and worshiped the golden image. --Dan. iii. 7.
[1913 Webster]

9. Any system of symbols created for the purpose of
communicating ideas, emotions, commands, etc., between
sentient agents.
[PJC]

10. Specifically: (computers) Any set of symbols and the
rules for combining them which are used to specify to a
computer the actions that it is to take; also referred to
as a computer lanugage or programming language; as,
JAVA is a new and flexible high-level language which has
achieved popularity very rapidly.
[PJC]

Note: Computer languages are classed a low-level if each
instruction specifies only one operation of the
computer, or high-level if each instruction may specify
a complex combination of operations. Machine language
and assembly language are low-level computer
languages. FORTRAN, COBOL and C are high-level
computer languages. Other computer languages, such as
JAVA, allow even more complex combinations of low-level
operations to be performed with a single command. Many
programs, such as databases, are supplied with special
languages adapted to manipulate the objects of concern
for that specific program. These are also high-level
languages.
[PJC]

Language master, a teacher of languages. [Obs.]

Syn: Speech; tongue; idiom; dialect; phraseology; diction;
discourse; conversation; talk.

Usage: Language, Speech, Tongue, Idiom, Dialect.
Language is generic, denoting, in its most extended
use, any mode of conveying ideas; speech is the
language of articulate sounds; tongue is the
Anglo-Saxon term for language, esp. for spoken
language; as, the English tongue. Idiom denotes the
forms of construction peculiar to a particular
language; dialects are varieties of expression which
spring up in different parts of a country among people
speaking substantially the same language.

higher programming language \higher programming language\ n.
(Computers)
A computer programming language with an instruction set
allowing one instruction to code for several assembly
language instructions.

Note: The aggregation of several assembly-language
instructions into one instruction allows much greater
efficiency in writing computer programs. Most programs
are now written in some higher programming language,
such as BASIC, FORTRAN, COBOL, C, C++,
PROLOG, or JAVA.

COBOL

/koh'bol/ (COBOL) A programming language
for simple computations on large amounts of data, designed by
the CODASYL Committee in April 1960. COBOL's {natural
language} style is intended to be largely self-documenting.
It introduced the record structure.

COBOL was probably the most widely used programming language
during the 1960s and 1970s. Many of the major programs that
required repair or replacement due to Year 2000 {software
rot} issues were originally written in COBOL, and this was
responsible for a short-lived increased demand for COBOL
programmers. Even in 2002 though, new COBOL programs are
still being written in some organisations and many old COBOL
programs are still running in dinosaur shops.

Major revisions in 1968 (ANS X3.23-1968), 1974 (ANS
X3.23-1974) and 1985.

COBOL
/koh'bol/, n.

[COmmon Business-Oriented Language] (Synonymous with evil.) A weak,
verbose, and flabby language used by code grinders to do boring mindless
things on dinosaur mainframes. Hackers believe that all COBOL programmers
are suits or code grinders, and no self-respecting hacker will ever
admit to having learned the language. Its very name is seldom uttered
without ritual expressions of disgust or horror. One popular one is Edsger
W. Dijkstra's famous observation that “The use of COBOL cripples the mind;
its teaching should, therefore, be regarded as a criminal offense.” (from
Selected Writings on Computing: A Personal Perspective) See also {fear and
loathing}, software rot.
