There actually is something special about English. Most of the technical
literature and discussion is in English.

I am not a native English speaker either, but I have used English daily
for over a decade. So basically your logic is that because you do not
make statements about a language you probably cannot even speak I should
not make statements about a language that I have used daily for over a
decade.

Besides your point is an ad hominem anyway.

As for the actual point I would probably refer to JavaScript
implementations as JavaScript implmentations (sometimes with wrong 
capitalization if I am in a less pedantic mood). JavaScripts sounds
wrong because when people refer to JavaScript they are almost always
referring to the language as a whole and not to a certain implementation.
And it is impossible to have more than one JavaScript. If you define
something else then it is not JavaScript, and if you define something that
is not different then it is the current JavaScript and not a new one. In
both cases there can only be one JavaScript at most.
