  • It’s that time of year again — Fall semester has begun! That means this site has begun picking up steam. During summers and other long breaks (spring and the winter holidays mainly), the site takes a sudden downturn while students enjoy their time off. But whenever a new semester starts, visits pick up dramatically. The uptick this year is quite high — almost 40% over last year.

    As the years go by, this site gets better and better. More errors are corrected, more features are added, etc. I’m working on a some new features that I hope will benefit everyone greatly — not just students but also the Latin academic community as a whole.

    Please continue sharing this site with students and teachers of Latin. I love watching the community grow year after year.

    Also, please continue marking errors as you come across them. I can’t fix every single error in a timely manner, but I’ll do my best to get as many as I can. Please keep in mind that some errors are harder than others to fix due to the nature of the computerized database employed here versus the organic nature of a human language like Latin.

    In any case, please enjoy your new semester! Good luck!

  • For the first time ever, Numen has cracked the symbolic high water mark! Yesterday over 1000 visitors came to this site! You can see from the chart below the normal weekend/weekday cycle of the site — there must be quite a few tests coming up this week!

    Thanks so much for using this site. As you know, we recently had a lot of server trouble but I’m happy to say that those problems are all cleared up now!

    For those of you who don’t know, I continuously correct errors on the site. Although you might find an error now and then, if you report it, I will fix it as soon as I can. Thanks for using this site, and please share it with friends and family, teachers and students, in fact anyone who studies or has a love of the Latin language.

  • I was recently browsing through Google Analytics (a tool that measures traffic to this site) and noticed that the most popular page by far is the Word Study Tool. In light of that, I spent 30 minutes sprucing it up to make it look better. I hope you enjoy it. I would eventually like to add more keyboard shortcuts. Presently, the only keyboard shortcuts are the left arrow and the right arrow.

    In other news, I also updated the template for the Latinitas Recens page. I’m working on incorporating that dictionary (as well as Whitaker’s Words) as a new source. In the meantime, please enjoy the updated look.
