Eric, why are you interested in learning another language?

If you want to expand your programming skills then you should pick a 
language quite different than Modula-2.  C or C++ aren't bad choices
and do have some similarities to Modula-2.

If you want to learn a language that is "better" with minimal culture
shock something like Modula-3 or Eiffel may work out given their common
background.

I can think of a bunch of other languages it is worth knowing but without
knowing your reasons it is hard to answer.
