United StatesProtagoras gives you fast and convenient access to no fewer than six indispensable classics reference works: the magisterial lexica by Liddell-Scott-Jones and Lewis and Short, the respective intermediate and elementary versions of the above works, and two specialized works (Autenrieth's Homeric Dictionary and Slater's Lexicon to Pindar). All six are included with the app free of charge, and feature powerful searching capabilities and the ability to view cited texts on the Perseus Digital Library. - Browse any of the dictionaries painlessly by section, or search for entries directly. Search for Greek entries using the built-in Greek keyboard, Latin transliteration, or standard Beta Code. - Viewing an entry will automatically bring up cross-referenced entries. (Note that this is not perfect yet.) - View the text of cited passages on the Perseus Digital Library. - Search any dictionary for words whose definition includes a specific English term. - Bookmark entries you find yourself returning to frequently, and use the history feature to jump back to recently-viewed entries.
Great app!
Six dictionaries, easy and intuitive searching in Greek, Latin, and English—what else could you ask for? It’s a godsend!
United StatesEasily the best app for Greek and Latin lexica.
Greek Prof. here. Don’t waste your money on other dictionary apps. I recommend this app to my students and use it for myself because of its simple UI, impressive speed, and powerful search capabilities. While usefully made available offline, entries are also linked to Perseus texts for convenient browser viewing. The bookmarking and new export vocab app are wonderful tools for Flashcard making...I cannot believe this feature set is free! Also: You can search for English headwords, which makes composing Ancient Greek on the fly a total breeze. Seriously though, this is not just a niche feature, as it has saved my goose numerous times when I need to find synonyms or am exploring networks of meaning or ancient discourses on x topic. Finally: My research specialty is Pindar. I cannot express how singularly awesome it is that Slater’s full Lexicon is on here, as that text is both extortionately expensive and unwieldy to lug around to whatever remote island where I happen to be toiling away... In sum: the dev must be commended for a serving such a pleasant and comprehensive lexical experience, which will meet the needs of both the student and the professional. Cheers, KAS
United StatesExcellent, but the most useful feature just vanished
This app is about the best I’ve found for Latin and Ancient Greek lexical resources. It has been well worth the money. However, a little more than two months ago, the English to Latin/Greek search feature just disappeared. I can no longer search for an English word and get back Latin and Greek lexical entries in which that English word appears. For me, this was in fact the best feature of the app. I’ve deleted and reinstalled more times than I care to count and I’ve tried changing all of the settings, even though they are few in number and completely unrelated to the problem. I want to give this app the five stars it used to deserve, but, until the problem is fixed, I can only offer two.
United StatesReally useful app
This is a must download. The cross-referencing and ability to browse by entry make it at least as useful and sometimes more so than Logeion. Thanks developer!
United StatesReally excellent resource
Thanks for a great app when I need a quick lookup. An easy and clean interface make it immensely useful. *a parsing feature would really make this app complete, but it is tremendously useful as it is.
United StatesFantastic!
A great app with 6 great dictionaries with iPad Pro resolution support. There's nothing more to ask.
United States
- Added support for Dark Mode. - Added support for Dynamic Type. - Changed icons to use SF Symbols. - Added support for multiple windows on iPad—open an entry or lexicon in a new window by dragging it from its respective table of contents, or from the "matching entries" or bookmarks/history views.
