C++ is like English - widely used, and steals like hell from other languages.

- smitherfield 9y agoWhile I'm a C++ fan, I'd readily concede it's much closer kin to (verbose) German than (laconic) English. Java's even more verbose, so it probably has the stronger claim on German,* which I guess makes C++ Danish and Perl English. :) * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Bechtolsheim https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Bechtolsheim
