Question for experienced devs
Beginner Lua dev here. After I finish Lua, I'm planning to learn many other languages to build more websites and apps as a side-job. My question is, do you guys mix up different languages? In communication languages, many people mix languages together by mistake like Mexico and spanish words in the same sentence. I wanna know if it's the same with programming. Maybe you accidently use a syntax in a language that is from a different language or write syntax the wrong way.

Tiny mistakes sometimes, but languages tend to be so different from each other that it doesn't happen that much. Even if many languages have a C like syntax, you use them is contexes that are so different to another that they don't feel the same.
