Natural Object Query Language
The goal of the Natural Object Query Language (or NOQL) is to have an plain old English representation of an object query
type QueryList<'a> = ;
where an object can take a list of query segments and either index a list or get a key from a map
Index
the ((first|second|third|fourth|fifth|sixth|seventh|eighth|ninth|tenth|eleventh|twelfth|#st|#nd|#rd|#th) [to last]|last) item
where #

Query List
(index|key) [of (index|key) [of (index|key) ...]]
query segments are chained with of
