Enjoy is probably the wrong word, especially at the time. I did not realize how much it would help with learning languages in the future. Once you have Latin, learning the Romance languages comes with a 60% down payment already made: Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian all share the same foundation. It's like having C and then taking on Awk, Perl, Python, and so on. I also think the structure of Ancient Greek helped me think about data structures and other systems in deeper ways. It molds ones thinking.
So the answer is that I did not really enjoy learning Ancient Greek and Latin as a student, but I am tremendously grateful that I did.
Sounds like what Steve Jobs said, you can only connect the dots looking backwards
