A lot of programming languages originated from non-English cultural or
linguistic environment (eg, Pascal, Modula-2, Oberon, etc), but they
ALL were designed in English.

Which is totally unrelated to the discussion. When Matsumoto wrote his first books on ruby, even if the reserved words were in "English" the explanations had to be translated from Japanese. To be "localized" to English.
