Hello, Habr! I present to your attention the translation of the article edited byxfides

Translation of the first part.
Let's practice reading the spec some more. If you haven't seen the previous article, it's time to go watch it. In the first part, we got acquainted with the simple Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty method . Also, we looked at the list of abstract operations that are called when this method is executed. We also learned about the specific abbreviations "?" and "!" related to error handling. Finally, we got information about language types, specification types, internal slots and internal methods.
Ready for Part 2?
Warning! This episode contains a copy of the algorithms from the February 2020 ECMAScript specification. Naturally, over time, the information will become outdated.

Step 1 evaluates the AssignmentExpression algorithm , which is o2.foo . The ref will contain the result of the calculation.
In step 2, we call GetValue from it. Thus, we know that the internal method of the [[Get]] object will be called and the prototype chaining will take place.
Summary
In this part, we looked at how the specification defines the features of the language; in our case, a prototype search through all the different layers: syntactic constructs that run algorithms and the steps that define them.
