It's not (quite) Despite being called "programming languages", they are not really languages for people to communicate, but for computers to understand instructions (although, humans do need to understand a programming language to be able to code). Saying that coding is like speaking another language can be confusing, so I'd recommend that coding is more like instructing a computer to do something (by writing instructions).
