The Amstrad CPC (under CP/M I guess) had a French LOGO, where it wouldn't be "forward 10" but "avance 10".
I think what mostly kills the appeal is
1) The actual keywords in the language are not that many (<50) and have a technical meaning where knowing English is only of limited help.
2) Much of what we do today uses library of code from others, where either you limit your audience by using non-English function (and/or class) names or you use English function names and hope that everyone will understand them to the necessary degree.
