I just tell them C. I consider FWH and Harbour to both be API's, and I do my builds with Visual Studio Community. It produces .c files for all my .prgs and uses the libs from Harbour and FWH also built with C, and then it uses those to link together the .exe. So, in the end it's all in Microsoft C in my case ... though if you use another compiler / library set it would be a different version of C.

Once I say that, no further need to discuss it.

No, [x]Harbour is not C in any sense.
