You can do that trick below 
with *built-in routines* too.

You can not rename this way *just key words*:
for, to, global, function ... etc - blue words,
not magenta - about 30 English words.

See for example my "Russian Toolkit"
in The Archive.
 
There are all Russian analogs for
built-in and standard RDS lib routines
for those interpreters with non-limited
alphabet. In that package, there is ed.ex
rewrote in Russian. Try that mumbo/jumbo,
works ok for me.

I asked Rob for the loading keywords 
(Russian, Malay, Chinese ...) years ago, 
he doesn't want, exquisite English boy
