    The practical reason to learn ancient Greek is to be able to read, or at least translate, ancient Greek. For most people, that may be of little or no "practical" use. However, it can be very useful is you want to study ancient Greek literature how it was written, help translate archeological finds, better understand Biblical Greek texts, or teach others ancient Greek. And of course, learning another language can just be a fun and interesting hobby in itself (as much as Sudoku, crossword puzzles, and other brain games) and you do get certain bragging rights.
