Can operating system be made by any programming language?

One day I was thinking that c# is used for Windows and c is used for Mac os, so just like that, os can be made by any programming language?

c#c++java c

Operating systems are different from apps. You need to go a tad low-level. https://www.quora.com/What-programming-language-are-operating-systems-written-in

No, creating an operating system requires access to the BIOS. Considering that java runs on a virtual machine it is impossible to gain access to the BIOS unless a cernal is already in place. Probably all operating system is written in more than one language. For example android runs on a linux kernal wich is written in c. The Libraries and Runtime is written in c++. And the applications and application framework is written in Java
