Not sure how technically accurate it is, but "language" usually implies more than just the syntax. I hear and say things like "compiled language", "interpreted language", "language VM", "garbage collected language", "dynamically typed language" and so on. Those things all say something about development speed and runtime speed.
- sigjuice 5y agoThe phrases "compiled language" and "interpreted language", despite their widespread use, are not particularly sound concepts. There are plenty of languages that have both compilers and interpreters.
