Any patricians in /lit/ actually comprehend an ancient language?
Recommended resources etc.
Accurate Power Ranking?:
Classical Greek > Latin > Classical Arabic > Sanskrit = Syriac = Ancient Egyptian > Other
/lit/ is full of pseuds... you might get a proper response, but its mostly reddit tier fags who want you to spoonfeed them
Take this to /his/ or the other board, you'll probably get some smarter people there.

I know classical arabic very well, a little bit latin, and I can write in runic alphabet (turkish one) if you count.
But what I say is I would prefer existing languages to the ancient ones. On the other hand you can say, classical arabic, latin and sanskrit are still useful today. But not as much as any existing language.
I know Ancient Greek, German, and English. For Greek, Perseus is a great resource: http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/
ancient greek -> sanskrit -> everything else
latin is trash
