Convert a 'pltcl' function to 'plpgsql' function (postgresql)

I have been researching for days about the diff. between pltcl and plpgsql language in postgresql to solve my problem.

I have created a trigger function in 'pltcl' language but now I am trying to convert this in 'plpgsql' language. Any idea on how to convert this piece of trigger function code to plpgsql function? Thanks
