I enjoy lisp/scheme syntax, but I'm especially impressed by lua's simple, readable, flexible, whitespace-insensitive-but-whitespace-friendly syntax. It is a bit more complicated than scheme's, but more intuitive because you don't need to explain quasi-quoting and other lisp-specific stuff. https://www.lua.org/manual/5.4/manual.html#9
