    <abstract>This paper examines the qualities and applicability of a provisional programming language, especially designed for use by beginner-level students in Bulgarian primary and secondary schools. The necessity for such a language is investigated. Then, relevant features are defined, as inspired by various programming languages (notably, languages used in education and characterised with non- English syntax) and by general trends related to the achievement of natural language in software development. A survey is conducted to test young students’ interaction with the language, and the latter’s advantages and limitations are listed and discussed.</abstract>
