Geul: Coding in Korean Grammar That Actually Compiles Like C

Picture this: 5를 3에 더하다. That's 'add 5 to 3' in Korean grammar—and it compiles natively, no interpreter in sight. Geul isn't just translated keywords; it's a radical rethink of programming syntax.

Geul code example: 5를 3에 더하다 compiling to native x86-64 executable

⚡ Key Takeaways

  • Geul models Korean SOV grammar and particles natively, binding args by role not position. 𝕏
  • Self-hosting compiler outputs zero-dep x86-64 PE files with advanced opts like register pinning. 𝕏
  • Benchmarks show it's near-C speed, poised to unlock non-English coding for millions. 𝕏
