The app

Learn Ancient Greek by reading Homer. The original beside a clear translation, read aloud, with every word glossed.

In the app

The original and the translation, side by side.

The author’s words align line by line with a clear English translation: two columns on iPad, a paired reading flow on iPhone.

Every line, read aloud.

Hear how the language actually sounds: its weight, its rhythm, not just how it looks on the page.

Notes for the line you’re on.

Tap any line for the grammar, the words, and the context behind it, written by us, for this text. An editor at your elbow.

Read aloud, and hear how you did.

Read a line yourself and the edition scores it on your phone: the whole line first, then sound by sound. Your voice never leaves the device.
