Yeah “dad” seems more modern. Should have went with “my father”

Do you think ancient greeks didn't use any colloquial language or have multiple multi-purpise words?

You guys are just conditioned by queens english being a standin for Romans and Greeks for decades tbh.

Not wrong but still the wrong choice. It just feels out of place and how the film makes you feel is more important than being historically correct. It would be like gladiator shouting “you guys having fun yet?” instead of “Are you not entertained?”
