Because English is the international language, it makes sense to design a computer language with the largest understandability factor, appealing to the widest range of audience.

Simply, it is an International language... to avoid confusion of different languages, a language is taken so that all the people of the world can understand that...nd that language is English!

It has only 26 letters, easy to read and its the most populated language. If you want a different language go to scratch
