English and Gibberish.
As to programming, I agree its the algorithm and process thats important. The rest is syntax.
Keep swapping and changing programming languages and you will get new insights on how to solve a problem.
Different languages have there advantages and disadvantages for any given solution.
I keep returning to Perl every now and than as its the only language I would describe as fun.
I have at least played with most. but mainly professionally used VB, C#, Perl, Javascript, VBScript for Miscrosoft web development and others such as C, C++ and Java for hobby stuff like Arduino and Android.
Dont get hung up on staying with one language all the rest are just a reference book and a project away.
