Most other languages didn't have an established game industry during the early 80s when the genre was at its height.
There are games with a Japanese parser such as The Portopia Serial Murder Case.

Portopia used the common system where F1-F10 had an associated command as shown on the bottom (F6-10 are available with the shift key).
I have no idea which game did it first.
Later games omitted the parser and used a more exhaustive and potentially context sensitive list of commands.
