It takes time to get used to it. For the programming beginners it's even harder, because they don't have that programmer's way of thinking.

Most popular modern high-level programming languages have very similar concepts regarding common programming techniques like OOP (including templating, polymorphism, etc.), recursion, loops, etc. Every programming language of course has a different syntax and often a specific domain it's made for (general programming, AI programming, scripting, etc.).
However, what I personally think is the hardest part about learning a new programming language, is learning all the library types and functions that come with it (e.g. C++'s standard library, C#'s/VB.Net's .Net, Java's API, etc.).
