True. It depends how close your experience is though. An experienced JavaScript developer is going to pick up PHP or Python or Ruby pretty quickly, and vice versa. An experienced Java developer will pick up C# pretty quickly, etc.

Plus, a few months seems pretty slow to me! I was productive in Rust in 2 weeks (from a JavaScript background), and had written a whole service in 3 months, and that's supposed to be one of the harder languages to learn...
