Explore Linux: Grab a copy of any distribution that appeals to you, install it and explore to your hearts desire.
What languages have been used: For the kernel, almost exclusively C and Assembler (as far as I know). Almost all of the system libraries are written in C, too, with a few in C++. As for the rest it's a healthy mix of almost every language out there.
And I too want to remind you of the
Rules, specifically Rule 9, which you agreed to when registering.
