The language is entirely in English. Only the comments and values are in Portuguese.

Since ladder is mostly diagram-based it almost doesn’t need to be localized and isn’t jarring when you use non-English variable and function names with English keywords.

Apart from being strictly left-to-right.

If you think it's jarring to mix names from different languages with English keywords... well, I have bad news for you.
