Is there a single language to build up an app for all sorts of operational systems?

Hi Guys, this question has just come up into my mind because I am building my first Android app. Although, I would like to know whether anyone of you ever get to know the different languages to each of the operational systems ex., android and IOS to build an app or there's a way I can build an app for both of the systems using the same framework?

You can build an app that works on just about any system with no changes in most if not all of the major languages but really this isn't as good of an idea as it might sound. Android and iOS for example take very different design approaches and trying to make something that looks the same on both is likely to make at least one of them not really fit in with what the user is expecting. It is also probably going to be a terrible developer experience. You're better off making the UI for each system fit the OS. Move common functionality into a shared library if you need.
