I barely notice the difference between Linux and Windows these days. A lot of that has to do with having a common scripting language between the two.

Is there a common scripting language that they both speak natively?

I am not sure what "natively" means. I use Tcl because it's a conservative choice; very nearly any of the usual suspects will run on both. There are of course many small and irritating differences.
