Reviews
This app has been incredibly useful for practicing specific types of verbs whenever I need them, and is very user friendly. The design looks great, and there is a wide array of useful settings. This is worth much more than just $1.99. Awesome!
Coming from a Latin student who has some serious trouble conjugating/parsing verbs, this app is amazing!! Not only does it have a clean look to it, but it also has a huge vocabulary database and is accurate.
As a Latin student, I cannot stress how valuable this tool has been to me in internalizing patterns of verb conjugation and the nature of the language. I strongly recommend this app to all you Latin Scholars out there, and to anyone interested in learning a new language. It is a fun, crisp, and addictive way to interact with one of the oldest known languages. Give it a try, I promise you’ll enjoy it :)

Practice Modes
Parsing Practice: Correctly identify the five characteristics of a verb: person, number, tense, mood and voice. Parsing is one of the most frequent assessments of verb knowledge in Latin classrooms; developing speed and accuracy is essential.
Irregular Verb Practice: Identify and translate four of the most common irregular verbs in Latin: sum, possum, ferō, and volō. Answer questions correctly to set new high scores and earn Denarii!
Conjugation Practice: Conjugate verbs (both Intellego’s and your own) in any combination of the six Latin tenses, two voices, and two moods. You can select which of these are active in the Settings menu.
Infinitive Practice: Test yourself on all six forms of the Latin infinitive (the present, future, and perfect tenses, in both the active and passive voices), with either a randomly picked verb from our database, or any regular verb of your choice. You can also check your time against a stopwatch. Collect Denarii (Roman coins) as you improve!
