I'm not even sure what you mean. Of course it is.

A programming language is a formal intermediate language for turning human comprehensible instructions into machine instructions by means of an interpreter or compiler. We've now allowed that intermediate language to be English, because that's preferable to most people, and the "compiler" has become very complicated indeed as a result of that.

You still have to be able to express what it is you want in a way the machine can understand, it's just both simpler and less deterministic now.
