ROBLOX uses only one language, a modified version of Lua referred to as RBX.Lua. Luckily, Lua is a very simple language so it may be the 'best language to start off learning'.

Lua in Roblox isn't modified, it just has functions that are added through the standard method of adding functionality to Lua

@chad

Roblox's usage of Lua is literally just normal Lua though

they're using it completely as intended through the Lua C library

LOLCODE is the best language for scripting on ROBLOX.

I learned batch, then lua, then a bit of JS, then I gave up on python, then html, then css, then I'm now learning PHP and C++.

And if it counts, I can decode .REZ file formats by hand, even when compressed. Useful for modding combat arms and any other FPS that uses REZ files.
