AppleScript was one of my first programming languages, way back in the day. I still have an AppleScript I wrote that I use every day on my MacBook. I'll say it was nice for a beginner that it didn't use a lot of fiddly punctuation, like dollar signs to start variable names, or semicolons to end statements. But the language is only natural-ish. The syntax is just as formal as python or anything else in how you must put it together. It looks easy, and maybe that is a virtue, but a week into it you are looping over an array and de-referencing the dictionary in each element. It's still loops, conditionals, operators, functions, typing, etc.
