Via Latīna
From your first word to Vergil
The Latin definitions in this dictionary come from these books. Each reader is written in Latin you can already manage and glosses new words in Latin, so you never leave the language. Climb one rung at a time.
Prōlogus Before Latin
The stories, told in English for young readers.
Gradus I First steps
Your first thousand words, explained in Latin with pictures, and the easiest Roman tales.
Gradus II Foundations
True Roman stories in simple, controlled Latin. Every new word is glossed in Latin in the margin.
Gradus III Real authors, supported
Caesar, Pliny, Seneca and Ovid, graded and glossed so that you read them rather than decode them.
Gradus IV Toward the originals
Fuller Latin and fewer supports: the bridge to unadapted texts.
Gradus V Vergil
The Aeneid, retold in Latin for learners and leading into Vergil's own lines.
