Язык ассемблера — машинно-ориентированный язык низкого уровня с командами, обычно соответствующими командам машины, который может обеспечить дополнительные возможности, такие, как макрокоманды; автокод, расширенный конструкциями языков программирования высокого уровня (выражения, макрокоманды, средства обеспечения модульности программ). Автокод — язык программирования, предложения которого по своей структуре в основном подобны командам и обрабатываемым данным конкретного машинного языка.
Язык ассемблера — система обозначений, используемая для представления в удобочитаемой форме программ, записанных в машинном коде. Язык ассемблера позволяет программисту пользоваться алфавитными мнемоническими кодами операций, по своему усмотрению присваивать символические имена регистрам ЭВМ и памяти, а также задавать удобные для себя схемы адресации (например, индексную или косвенную). Кроме того, он позволяет использовать различные системы счисления (например, десятичную или шестнадцатеричную) для представления числовых констант и даёт возможность помечать строки программы метками с символическими именами с тем, чтобы к ним можно было обращаться (по именам, а не по адресам) из других частей программы (например, для передачи управления).
Перевод программы на языке ассемблера в исполнимый машинный код (вычисление выражений, раскрытие макрокоманд, замена мнемоник собственно машинными кодами и символьных адресов на абсолютные или относительные адреса) производится ассемблером — программой-транслятором, которая и дала языку ассемблера его название.
