Did reading the text help you any? Did the word "wiki" make sense in the context? (I suppose "lambda", "lisp", and "s-expression" are not very familiar to you?)

No snark here, I just try to understand how do different people read and understand a copy like this.

On mobile I see no reference to any of those words or help. I also have no idea what's going on.
Not sure where you're reading this. All I can see is this page http://b2b3.free.fr/lambdaspeech/?view=start
Ah, the page I saw initially was pretty self-explanatory, a wiki page describing things like `{b{i{Hello World}}}` and all the way to introducing basic Lisp constructs.

It is now taken offline due to too many "stupid people", as the last line says, apparently due to them vandalizing it :(

The menu which is shown now is much less helpful indeed.

Thanks for your help. The site is still alive.
