I don't think the term has much value. Maybe Scratch.

- colanderman 8y ago"Language for people who are not programmers but who need to instruct computers to do things" is the definition I work with. Scratch, BASIC, etc., aren't really suited to that role. No-one who's just trying to munge some files wants to be told "OK first learn this language that isn't useful for you, and then you can learn a language that is". Hence why practically, Python tends to fill the "beginner" role, which is unfortunate due to its complexity.
- diminoten 8y agoPython is for people who are programmers, so it doesn't fall under your rule. Also that rule is tautological.
