Answer 1

you have found something that interests you so you enjoy learning the subject

Answer 2

usually their is one person in each grade in schools that is into and good at greek mythology and stuff like that.

that person is always average in other subjects, but great and passionate about that for some reason.

i went to 4 different schools, and their was always one.

its your "niche"

Answer 3

There are different forms of intelligence and yours would  be languages. Good for you! I wish I had that one.  

Answer 4

Answer 5

Smart

Answer 6

ur jus smart

Answer 7

ur just linguistic - like me!!

way to go dude :D

we're the cool ones in life :P

nah, seriously u'l get a gr8 job with a rare skill such as greek

Answer 8

Ever heard the saying everyone is good at something??? Greek is very hard but if you are finding it is easy then you must be very good in that subject :)

Answer 9

everyone has special talents that lie latent (unused) until they get an opportunity to be used.  Perhaps yours is languages.

Run with it and see where it takes you

- you aren't strange.

Answer 10

everyone has different talents, you're smart in some and not so smart in others, nothing special, relax

Answer 11

Don't know, but ancient greek is tough.  

Answer 12

Intelligent people are very good at some things but not so good at others. For example, I have a high IQ for my age and I am abnormally good at French and Spanish compared to others my age, but I suck at Physics, Chemistry and Maths. It just depends on what kind of brain you have :-)

Answer 13

Obviously You are very gifted at this subject. lol.

At our school with have a group caled TAG ( stands for talented and gifted)  and each person in that group is in there because they are good at one subject or more.  You would be in for ancient greek. I wish i could learn that  all we do for launguages is Spanish german and french...OH and english  of course !

Answer 15

You're smart but work on you're spelling a bit.

Answer 16

you're probably like me - a Maverick. I was a legend in Maths (despite average predictions) but average at everything else because I had little interest..  

Answer 17

you're just more inked to that i guess. your smarrrttttt.

Answer 18

Some people are good at athletics, art, or English. You just found something you are good at.  I don't think it's strange.  Just have fun with it.

Answer 19

It is common to be good at some things and not at others. I would say you are normal.

Answer 20

Nope not strange at all. Its juat one of your talents. Try taking up something like french or spanish :)  

Answer 21

Well some people just have a better understanding with certain things.
