Young had learned to read before he was two, and by the
age of twenty had mastered a dozen foreign languages
including Arabic, Persian, and Turkish. An inheritance
from an uncle left him free to pursue his scientific
interests. At various times, Young studied the habits of
spiders, the surface features of the moon, and diseases of
the chest. Then, intrigued by the challenge of the Rosetta
Stone, he put aside his other studies and concentrated on
attempting to decipher the writing on it. Young had read
of de Sacy's and Akerblad's work in Paris, and was
determined to succeed where they had failed.
