About this app

LEARN BY READING & LISTENING
Legentibus is a language learning app and a library carefully curated for anyone interested in the Latin language. The unique combination of Latin texts with synchronized audio gives you an unsurpassed learning experience. Dive into our growing collection, from beginner stories to works by classical authors such as Cicero or Tacitus.

Download books and audiobooks to your device to listen and read offline wherever you are.

EXPLORE BEGINNER STORIES, TEXTBOOKS, LITERATURE
Legentibus contains plenty of materials for learning, studying, or simply enjoying Latin:

· Stories for beginners
· Textbooks and readers such as Familia Romana and Ritchie’s Fabulae Faciles
· Roman myths and history
· Latin literature by authors such as Caesar, Cicero, Sallust, and Erasmus.
· And more

New titles are added continually, and a regularly updated reading plan is also available.

DISCOVER FEATURES THAT WILL IMPROVE YOUR LEARNING
All books come not just with Latin audio, but also with additional help. Depending on the book, different features are available, such as:

· English translations or interlinear translations
· Glossaries with English definitions
· Grammatical notes
· Commentaries
· Macrons for all texts
· Dark/light mode

LEARN WITH STORIES: EXCLUSIVE LEGENTIBUS-ORIGINALS
Our illustrated Beginner Stories are written in simple language with a unique vocabulary count of 100 to 200 words with additional features:
· Audio
· Translation
· Commentary
They are all grounded in history or literature– in classical myths, fables, medieval stories, or historical events, e.g.:

· The Knight and the Magician (medieval)
· Phrixus and Helle (classical)
· Orpheus and Eurydice (classical)
· The Strange Death of Milo (classical)
· A Dangerous Journey (classical)
· The Statue and the Treasure (medieval)

That way, you will learn more than the language itself. We go to great lengths to ensure that the vocabulary and syntax is attested in Roman literature.

We believe that stories are key to learning Latin efficiently while simultaneously having a good time – which in turn enhances your learning.

WHO IS THIS LANGUAGE APP FOR?
Legentibus was created for:
· Complete beginners to advanced Latin learners
· Autodidacts and enthusiasts
· Students and researchers
· Latin speakers who want to improve their skills

With an easy-to-use interface, learning is natural and stress-free. In addition, a curated library with a reading plan facilitates long-term success.

We constantly add resources and make improvements.

WHY IS LEGENTIBUS DIFFERENT?
For a long time, people learned Latin by memorizing declension and conjugation tables, lists of words, and analyzing and translating complex sentences without much context. But Latin is a language, not a puzzle.

It is essential to experience Latin as a language: a medium for communicating something, be it philosophy, history, or a simple story. The only way to achieve true reading fluency in Latin is to listen and read as much Latin as possible from the start.

We made this app to help Latin learners achieve their goals, no matter how varied they might be.

You can do all the listening, reading, and understanding you need in one place, in Legentibus.

Looks really cool, I've been taking Latin for years and have been wanting to improve by studying something besides Ceasar and the Gauls but for some reason after I got on the app and pressed "get started" and "continue" there was no button to press or place to go and I was stuck on that page. It's probably just a glitch, but please fix soon!

I think this app is excellent. The price is more than reasonable. The user interface and navigation is a little clunky I think. Suggestion: when looking at the chapters in a book you are reading, please don't have the titles moving across the screen. I found that annoying. Perhaps there is a way to stop that? Your team has obviously spent a ton of time setting this up. I appreciate all the hard work you've done.

Mirabile auditu! Super Teacher, Magister Pettersson's latin book app. What a great product! Very polished despite only being released a short while ago. No ads, and very reasonably priced . One of my new favorite tools for learning latin. I use it whenever I have a little time but don't want to pull out a physical book. I hope you continue to add more books with audio and translations. Gratias tibi ago!!

Thank you very much! Mihi maximo gaudio est haec tua verba legere! We will absolute continue adding more books with audio, translations and more. In fact, I'm putting the finishing touches on a book right now, which we will publish in Legentibus within a few days.If you want to suggest texts or books for recording, just write to [email protected]
