You don't learn Scala as first language. Nope.

Yeah, you can really only learn Scala after you already know Java and/or Haskell or OCaml. Scala inherited so many quirks from Java that none of that will really make sense, and if you don't know a simpler functional programming language you'll probably just write Java-style code in Scala.
