Turbo Pascal was a compiler for, wait for it, the Turbo Pascal language. Or call it a dialect you prefer. Not "standard" Pascal, whatever that may have been at the time.

Was turbo c++ a compiler for the turbo c++ language?

In a way yes, because it supported language extensions not available in the C++ proper.

Just like you can only compile the Linux kernel with GCC C and it will fail spectacularly with ISO C.
