I have been hearing a lot lately regarding Scala, Clojure, etc which is supposed to run on JVM.
Does this means that those languages are implementing the Java API underneath?
What does it mean for a language to run under JVM?
Thanks.

It means that these languages can be compiled into Java bytecode, which the JVM executes.
