TypeScript doesn't need the "function" keyword for a method in an object or on a class though.

const foo = {
  bar(): string {
   ... 
  } 
}

which I assume is doable because the syntax is unambiguous.

PHP's object orientation is similar to languages like Java and C#, which is what I was comparing to.

Your example didn't mention the use of the function keyword. Instead, it seemed to be questioning the placement of the return type - placing it after the argument list seems pretty common in newer languages.
