I would argue that learning languages was easier for many people then, especially in centers of trade like a Greek city-state. As the other commenter mentioned, there were an abundance of multilingual people because of the large exposure to different languages.

Most of the people that I've met during my travels have at least two languages, often more. It's the same as it was.
