To add a new machine language instruction to an processor instruction set, you need to replace the microcode of the processor.
Machine language.
No. Generally, one instruction in a high level language corresponds to many instructions in machine language.

Machine language
The step of the machine cycle that translates an instruction into a form the processor can understand is called the decode phase. During this phase, the instruction fetched from memory is interpreted by the control unit, which determines the necessary actions and the data required for execution. This involves converting the instruction into signals that can control the processor's operations, allowing it to perform the specified task.
It is an assembler language programmer
The part of the processor that indicates which machine instruction is next in line for execution is called the Program Counter (PC). The Program Counter holds the memory address of the next instruction to be fetched and executed. After the current instruction is executed, the PC is updated to point to the subsequent instruction, ensuring the sequential flow of execution in a program.
A language processor is a very popular machine. Language processors break down words and sentences and deliver the meaning to the intended viewer.
It is a type of software that convert programe into machine language
A pseudo-op is an assembly language instruction that specifies an operation of the assembler i.e about the base register & its contents e.g. USING instruction. On the other hand, a machine-op instruction. That represents a machine instruction to the assembler e.g. BR instruction is a machine-op instruction
Assembly language to machine code translation is a "one to one" translation process, as every individual instruction expressed in the assembly language corresponds to exactly one machine instruction. Note this does not hold for pseudo instructions or expanding macros, which are supported by some assemblers.
• The processor fetches the instruction from memory • Program counter (PC) holds address of the instruction to be fetched next • PC is incremented after each fetch • Fetched instruction loaded into instruction register
