Lua is nice and easy to learn. Elsewhere I would chose ANSI/ISO-C but you can first learn Lua and than C.EDIT: I'm already aware of the Lua interperter Rhinne (I hope I spelled their name right) made, so I might start with Lua if I don't decide on something else
C is more complex but very usefull. It has its quirks you need to get around with.
The Lua syntax is based on the syntax from C.
+1 for Lua for beginners
+1 for C if you directly want to have something you can need pretty much always.
