Answer 1

No language. It is primarily designed as a static and front-end proxy server.

The server itself is written in C and supports C-compatible plug-ins, but the plug-in architecture is heavily geared towards interfacing with other servers on the back end, not to add, e.g., PHP support.

Answer 2

WAMP is not a webserver. *W*indows *A*pache *M*ySQL *P*HP. Usually web-server do not came with language support. They either have modules, for apache it's like mod_php, mod_python, mod_passenger, etc, for nginx there's no module, you'll need standalone fastCGI or PHP-FPM.

So basically nginx can support any language with fastCGI or fastCGI-like interface available.
