There are quite a few non-Java front-ends to Hadoop APIs in popular languages already written by many involved in this community. I'm unable to find a listing of all these implementations (such as dumbo, scalding, etc.) but generally searching over the internet with "language"+"hadoop" would yield some relevant results of various implementations.
I'd also recommend taking a look at Apache Crunch at http://crunch.apache.org (its got Scrunch for Scala folks).
