Completely in ancient greek. I also bought an $80 ancient greek compilation with Euripides and Aristophanes.
I don't speak a word of ancient greek. I thought this would spur me to learn it but that was 4 months ago. What do?

Can you post an image you the books you bought? If you dropped $80 for used OCT or Loeb copies of Euripides and Aristophanes you got complete ripped off. Three volumes of complete Euripides and two volumes of Aristophanes should be $50 at the very most.
Also for learning Greek through Homer I would recommend Pharr's Reading Greek.
