That's a great observation. Think of it like learning a new language in real life. If the syntax feels polite, the language designers wanted it to be approachable and readable, so they added clear brackets, descriptive keywords, and consistent indentation. It’s like a formal greeting that keeps everyone on the same page. On the other hand, when the syntax feels like shouting, the language was built for speed and power, so they cut the fluff. You get terse symbols, implicit types, and lots of magic happening under the hood—like a quick, forceful command that gets straight to the point. Both styles have their place, but understanding the “tone” of a language helps you choose the right tool for the job and makes you a more adaptable coder. What’s your favorite language, and how does its tone make you feel?
