Modern C# does provide some FP constructs (in the form of LINQ, lambdas etc.). I know that having used them a lot made it easier for me to grasp Scala.

I found the reverse to be true - Learning FP paradigm stuff in Scala helped me pick up C#.

Finding out about Linq made me research functional-relational mapping for Scala. FRM makes so much sense to me.
