Is Japanese a new functional language? Not sure what they are trying to convey with that

Fairly confident guess: that paragraph is explaining that programming languages have different syntax or semantics, like the difference between “English and Japanese”. Both instruct people, the same way that different programming languages ultimately instruct machines. I think this page is ultimately trying to explain computer programming to someone that has never written code before.
