It goes without saying: Lua is soooo much better.
So just use Lua :-)
You'll get used to its syntax pretty fast.
I wrote a lot of things in Basic (I should say BASIC) in the early '80s
and, yes, I confess I liked the language. It also was my first exposure
to garbage collection and it helped a lot in understanding dynamic
languages many years later, while Pascal-raised people were scratching
their heads.
Using languages as learning tools for new concepts is better than trying
to force square pegs into round holes. You'll find that syntax is
largely irrelevant.
