Lapicida Latinus

Latin for school & university

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Understand Latin instead of cramming: vocabulary, forms, syntax and original texts interlock – reviewed adaptively, from your first word to the Latinum. You don't have to hurl menhirs to master Latin. Just open Lapicida. Any app can teach vocabulary. But understanding Latin means more: recognising forms with confidence, analysing sentences and reading real ancient texts. Lapicida combines all four steps into one intelligent, coherent learning path - from your first word to original texts by Cicero, Caesar or Virgil. Whether for school (secondary, ages 13-18), the Latinum exam at university or self-study - Lapicida adapts to your pace. Try it free - Premium from €1.67/month. ------------------------------ THE PATH TO THE LATINUM ------------------------------ 1. VOCABULARY with AI photo scan Photograph your textbook page: the AI recognises the words automatically and matches them against over 13,000 entries (compatible with Cursus, Felix, Prima and any other textbook). 10 learning modes - from Tetris to the new Ruina mode - train your memory through spaced repetition. 2. FORMS in real context Never learn declension and conjugation as an abstract table again! Practise nouns, adjectives, pronouns and participles embedded directly in real sentences, with instant live feedback on case, number and mood. 3. SENTENCES - the didactic heart Over 2,900 hand-curated, real sentences from classical literature. Analyse sentence elements step by step across 15 progressive grammar areas (from subject & predicate through ACI and NCI to the ablative absolute and the gerund). 4. READING - the goal As soon as you're ready, matching original texts unlock: Cicero, Caesar, Sallust, Livy, Virgil and the Vulgate. Over 70 text collections, level-adapted with vocabulary help and an integrated sentence quiz. ------------------------------ WHAT MAKES LAPICIDA UNIQUE ------------------------------ Dyslexia-friendly (from personal experience) Semantic colour coding (subject = blue, predicate = red), the OpenDyslexic font, increased letter spacing and an adjustable learning pace at the tap of a button. Built by someone who learned Latin with dyslexia himself. Structured curriculum by year of study A clear learning path across years 1-4 - from your first word to reading original texts, alongside any textbook. Ideal preparation for the Latinum. Audio pronunciation & listening Have vocabulary and forms read aloud with correct classical Latin pronunciation. Over 2,400 professionally voiced entries help you memorise. Evidence-based Uses active recall and spaced repetition - the most effective learning methods proven by cognitive science. Focused 5- to 15-minute sessions are all you need. No pressure & no streak stress No losing points, no breaking streaks that cause frustration. The forgiving system motivates through genuine mastery - and forgives the odd typo. 100% offline & GDPR-compliant Fully usable offline. No ads, no forced account, no sharing of your data. For teachers & schools: the Officina Create your own vocabulary lists, manage classes and track progress. Class licences for schools available. ------------------------------ WHO IT'S FOR ------------------------------ Secondary school (ages 13-18) | Latinum exam | catching up on the Latinum | university (theology, history, law, teacher training) | dyslexia | self-study START WITH NO COMMITMENT: The app can be tried completely without an account.
