설명

Use one app to look up any Greek or Latin word: Logeion was developed at the University of Chicago to provide simultaneous lookup of entries in many classical dictionaries. In addition, for frequent words, some frequency and collocation information is given plus examples from the corpus at perseus.uchicago.edu.

• Liddell and Scott's Greek-English Lexicon (1940)
• DGE (Diccionario Griego–Español). In progress; up to έξαυος.
• Slater's Lexicon to Pindar (1969)
• Woordenboek Grieks/Nederlands (in progress).

• Lewis and Short, Latin-English Lexicon (1879)
• The Dictionary of Medieval Latin from British Sources, ed. R. E. Latham, D. R. Howlett, & R. K. Ashdowne (London: British Academy, 1975-2013)

The app draws data from the following Greek and Latin textbooks.

Can we get an update?

I love this app and use it almost every day. But it’s over four years old and not optimized for any of the newer phones from the last three years. It still runs in letterboxed format on any phone from the iPhone 10 or later. Can we get an update?

Hi, Please use Logeion problem reports to request a sneak preview of the update.

Fantastic, until it started crashing

I use Logeion constantly on the web. Partly because about a year ago the app started crashing on both my iPad and iPhone. I love it immensely, but I really wish that it would work in ios again. Yes, my software is up to date. My iPad Pro is older, but it also fails on my iPhone 14 Pro.

But I love it enough to tell you to give it a try and be delighted if it works on your device. If it doesn’t, you should still use the web version.

As a Latin instructor I love the ability to show my students examples of how a word actually works in context using the usage examples. Rather than drag the giant OLD or Lewis (and Short) into the classroom I can just throw this on the board and model how to use a dictionary (and how wrong their textbook is at times, “Me, see, I told you this word is almost never found in existing texts, see that, ‘fewer than 50’.). I also love the concordance to commonly used Latin textbooks such as Learn to Read Latin or, shudder, Wheelock.

I love this app so much that I have not removed it from my devices in the faint hopes it will be updated and start working again. Please let this be so. Are offerings required? To Mercury? Minerva? Thoth? Hermes Trismegistos? Do Tell!

Hi, Please use Logeion problem reports to get a sneak preview of the update, like those who reported it to us directly. Offerings welcome:-)

Life-changing

As an alphabetically challenged Latin and Greek nerd, I use this app every day. I can’t believe it’s free and has no ads! So much faster than looking things up in a paper dictionary, and I absolutely love all the examples from different texts.

The only problem is that it’s very easy to click by accident on the wrong word from the suggestions list, and end up in an entry about a bizarre word that shows up once in extant literature when you just wanted to see if amo has a long or short a.
