Not Different Language Once your Code gets compiled using CLR ,the code is not converted to CPU instructions First what ever language example c++,C#,VB.Net if you compile using CLR first it's partially compiled that is MSIL(Intermediate Language) ,after that when the application starts an action your MSIL is further Compiled to Machine Instructions JIT is responsible for that action.

Let me try to explain in simplest possible terms: Strictly technically CLR doesn't understand any language such as C# or VB. All it understand is stuff like MSIL, CTS, etc. It is the compiler of the of the language which does the initial parsing of your code and makes MSIL out of it. So even if you are seeing .exe extension of the file, it is not the true .exe. It is still a .obj file from older days such as COBOL, etc. It is CLR which translates this MSIL code to binary code which computer really understands and the executes it. You may also wish to read a book "CLR via C#" for better understanding of whole process.

CLR is the heart of the. Net framework. Microsoft tries to bring the all the language under one umbrella that's why they introduce the MSIL(Microsoft Intermediate Language) and CTS(Common Type System). CTS is mainly used to interact with the CLR .
