It does not work for French and Italian which are “easy” Western
European languages. I don't see how it could possibly work with
languages that us more complex grammar rules such as cases. The
programmatical approach is an English-only approach that only works
because English is a very simple language that lets you collate words
without changes in pretty much any order and get valid sentences
nevertheless.
