Seriously, BASIC is one of my favorite languages!
It’s very english-like and works pretty much the way you want,
I would say Rexx, but then you get into comparisons with clists, etc.
I actually moved from Basic to PASCAL in college and tried my hand at that for awhile.
Now, I do nothing with programming. Life sent me in another direction.

How I long for a simple PSET command that will put a dot on the screen so you can graph something wthout having to kill yourself.
