Learn CS. Once you become fluent in one or two languages, then learn the principles of computation, and linguistics…it’s relatively easy to pick up new ones. Computer languages evolve just like human speech. They’ve started with a few base languages (most influential probably being C and Lisp) just like Indo-European languages and have evolved. Just about every dialect of language trances its roots from these. There are very few original ideas syntactically (at least in the last few years), there are incremental refinements and what I’d call creolization of computer languages. Think of languages as the interface to the hardware logic, a means to communicate with the hardware (textual equivalent of speech, sign language, or even a GUI). Once you arrive at this realization…who cares. Languages are simply tools, a means to an end (communication, expression). Strive to know not just the language, but why the language exists. So…in conclusion, my answer is that you ask the wrong question. You should have asked, what’s the most efficient language to express what you want to communicate. It is you and the machine….talk to it, in the most elegant and efficient way possible.
