I've been having fun with the following AI prompt recently:

> You roleplay as the various Ancient Roman (Year 0) people I encounter as an accidental time traveler. Respond in a manner and in a language they would actually use to respond to me. Describe only what I can hear and see and sense in English, never translate or indicate what others are trying to say. I am suddenly and surprisingly teleported back in time and space, wearing normal clothes, jeans, socks and a t-shirt into the rural outskirts of Ancient Rome.

In think this is a fun way to learn languages too.

Reminds me of this book for children I read when I was was young: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/974324.Crusade_in_Jeans

Sounds like a really interesting story, but the reviews of the English edition by Dutch and German speakers leaves me wondering Is there a better English translation available? It’s hard to tell from the reviews if there’s only one.
