I'd actually have to check if Urbit supports utf8 code. I want to say yes, since the compiler internals technically can, but it's probably not hooked up correctly.

Are there any languages do this right? Even if identifiers can be utf8, they still have English reserved words. Maybe something like Forth, where the entire language is redefinable. Or, I dunno, Smalltalk.

There's always APL!
