Syntax is not a problem. Most difficult part is understanding of algorithms, data structures etc. If you can learn one language, then you can learn other languages incredibly fast. I started with C++ and now I can see so many similarities in other languages, like Java, JavaScript and PHP because their syntax is C or C++-based. So I suggest to learn one language first and then you will be able to learn other language in just few weeks, but I also think that it is not bad to learn more languages at a time.

Personally, I would start with just one, get to grips with that first. 1. becuase different languages use different syntaxes and methods for things like arrays, loops, functions, variables etc. 2. some languages use very similar syntax for the same (variables, functions, methods etc etc.) So if you're fairly profficient in one language, you can carry the knowledge over to another language. Thats you're choice though. Do what works best for you :)

Ruby is not as c-like as most languages are. it's more like smalltalk, perl and lisp. So I'd recommend you to start with the others. but do learn Ruby. it's just wonderful.
