I don't know if I really learned a "new" language this year (i.e. one I had never touched before), but I did spend a lot of time on improving my understanding of some languages which were more important to me, and learning some new frameworks and libraries. In particular, I spent a lot of time digging into OpenMP and MPI programming in Fortran and C, and getting a better understanding of SciPy and NumPy. (If you hadn't guessed, I work in HPC. :-) ) I also worked on a couple of webapps using Bottle (Python) and Dancer (Perl), which were new frameworks to me.
