Morphology
The meaning is directly and compositionally derived from 'programming' (writing/testing code) + 'language' (a system of communication), yielding 'a language used for programming'. This is a common, cross-linguistically paralleled compound found in many languages, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the intended meaning.
Etymology
Programming language comes from the idea of using a language to write a program, like a simple recipe of 'instructions' a computer can follow. So today it means a set of rules and words used to tell a computer what to do.
