What is the proper way to distinguish between keywords and identifiers?
I’m aware that most modern languages use reserved words to prevent things like keywords from being used as identifiers.

Should ** bind more tightly than !, ~?
Designing a programming language, I’m including the ** exponentiation operator. In Fortran and Python, the two languages I know of which have this operator, it binds more tightly than unary minus, which makes sense for practicality as well as tradition.

Why do programming languages allow shadowing/hiding of variables and functions?
Many of the most popular programming languges (such as C++, Java, Python etc.) have the concept of hiding / shadowing of variables or functions. When I’ve encountered hiding or shadowing they have been the cause of hard to find bugs and I’ve never seen a case where I found it necessary to use these features of the languages.
