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. • Frieze (rev. Dennison) Vergil’s Aeneid Books I-XII, with an Introduction, Notes, and Vocabulary • Greek: An Intensive Course, by Hardy Hansen and Gerald M. Quinn • Reading Greek: Grammar and Exercises, by Joint Association of Classical Teachers • Learn to Read Greek, by Andrew Keller and Stephanie Russell • Learn to Read Latin, by Andrew Keller and Stephanie Russell • Introduction to Attic Greek (2nd edition), by Donald Mastronarde • Wheelock's Latin, by Frederic M.

    contains liddell-scott and lewis-short dictionaries, in a robust professional app. and IT’S FREE! as a classicist, I can’t imagine better; as a man, I can’t understand a negative review of this resource.
  • Amazing

    Thank you for the recent update making Logeion usable again! It’s the best platform for accessing Classics dictionaries on iOS. I really enjoy offline access for reading on the go, the dual functionality for Latin and Greek, and the choice of dictionaries.
  • THANK YOU FOR THE UPDATE

    The developer advises many of us to report the crash in the app, but for me, the app does not open. It starts, then crashes. There’s no way for me to enter the information requested because the app does not open. I’m using the latest IOS

    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!
