My father is still convinced I'm going to be a scientist.
See, if you'd stuck with the biology, you'd have had to learn a bit of Greek and Latin for that. Probably not enough to satisfy your curiosity, mind - and certainly nothing on the same level as the Catullus.

I've had scientific and mathematical conversations with my dad before
We'll sit down and discuss stuff. He taught me about imaginary numbers when I was 13, and integration when I was around 15.
I just enjoy the problem-solving feeling of translation. You have the component parts before you, you have to identify them all and their function. there are sometimes ambiguities, which makes it fun. Sometimes there are things misisng, and sometimes it's just really hard. But it's fun.
