Javascript is an interpreted language. Is it true ?

Not really, At the beginning, JS is an interpreted language and this cause slowness in JS Engine. So, mix of both that is compiler and interpreter(JIT - Just In time compilation) was used, which increases the speed of JS Engine really really fast.

So, it depends on implementation of the browser that makes JS either interpreted or compiled-interpreted language.
