My experience learning Perl and Python after C/C++ and C# was okay I really get the obsession with unit tests now. One thing notable in C you usually don't have to type the type name twice. But C++/Java/C# you do. That's when I think about it was a really bad grammar mistake. Java and C# shouldn't have propagated it. Mentioned above I agree with, designing good types is non trivial. I think that's part of the problem that designing good API's is non trivial. I can see programmers getting the hate on when dealing with code bases with crappy types and crappy API's.
