FWIW, Turbo Pascal included the environment, tools and numerous non-standard extensions to Pascal so, to some extent, was a language in its own right. Standard Pascal at the time was pretty much useless for serious programming since, as mentioned, Pascal was not designed for that. Turbo Pascal essentially morphed into Delhi.

There was also Turbo Prolog.
