Alexander the Great, but how would I, or anyone else communicate with him? Does anyone on Earth today speak Ancient Greek?

LOL! I find the idea darkly humorous that one would get this time traveling wish, then discover the deal didn't involve being able to translate languages. Or there was similarly no promise ones strange clothes, language, and possessions wouldn't result in one immediately being killed as.a suspected witch.

"Jesus? Jesus!  It is so amazing to meet you! I have so many questions to ask. What do you think.... What's that? Huh? I'm sorry I don't understand… oh crap."

" Hey you, stop that! I was just trying to talk to Jesus here and… yes, those are called Nike's. very good insole support.  That? Hey! Give that back! It's a cell phone. It probably doesn't get very good reception here, but I guess you can work the calculator app and watch downloaded Netflix till the battery dies. That button you just pushed controls voice to text, but it's garbage"

 "Wait. What are you all doing?!? ( Is carried aloft by crowd rushing towards tall cliff).  I just wanted to discuss the Reformation and teachings of Saint Pauuuullllllllllllllllllllllllllll........."

Even if you spoke Attic Greek as a native language you would have had a hard time understanding him. Macedonians were half barbarian even before they became Slavs.
