> ...quite a few of them learned Ancient Greek

The english phrase "it's all greek to me" has very different connotations depending upon if either (a) one knows no one who knows any greek, or (b) one had some greek in school, and even if one never did well oneself, one knows others with some facility in the language; in the latter case it implies "may look incomprehensible, but can be mastered with some effort".
