Ultralingua Latin English App Reviews

I was initially excited to see a Latin dictionary on IPhone, but ended up dissapointed. I own two other Ultralingua dictionaries (Italian and French) and am satisfied with those. I expected that this dictionary would come with the conjugation as others that I have bought, but unfortunately it does not. The conjugation on verbs and additional noun declensions would be a great addition to this app. Without those features, I find it hard to justify the money that I spent and thus the 2 stars rating. Once they have implemented the features, I will upgrade the review.

I agree that this application needs the conjugations all the other Ultralingua dictionaries offer. Very disappointing!

Conjugation (1, 2, 3, & 4) for verbs , declension (1-5)...macrons..don't care too mig about those. Get some irregular verb charts in there as well. Pretty good with phrases and vocab, though..so +1 star. Give us our money's worth!

This dictionary is virtually useless. Clearly 3/4 of all Latin spoken is ecclesiastical Latin, and this dictionary is no help with even the most basic of Latin words. Ultralingua needs todo a much better job.

I wasted my money on this. Whatever happened to truth in advertising? No conjugation, inaccurate 'manual' for want of a better word. The free aps are just as good.

I have several other Ultralingua apps that I find very useful. That having been said, why isn't this app formatted like those? No conjugations? I know Latin is a "dead" language, but there is still a lot to be learned from studying it. Conjugations would greatly help give this app another star or two, as well as help its users get more from it.

I really like this app. I cannot pretend to any great expertise in Latin dictionaries. But I like this one because it identifies words if you give any of the many forms of the word. Latin, of course, has endings which can multiply the forms to a bewildering number. And sometimes there are forms that are just unrecognizable by a humble student such as myself. I recently, for example came across the term "lautus erit" in Familia Romana chapter XXX. I could not figure it out. But this app got me to the future perfect passive form of the term for wash. I had puzzled over that for days before I finally broke down and consulted this app. It got me there in moments. So I recommend it.

This is a nice dictionary to have for improving vocabulary and overall it's not that bad, but it would be great if there were a Pro Latin Dictionary with semantics, macrons, parts of speech, conjugations, phonetics, headwords in blue, vulgar and modern Latin, and sample sentences. Some definitions are incorrect, e.g. ''earthquake'' turns out ''terrae'' when it should be ''terrae motus.'' Also please add Japanese, Russian, Greek and other languages. Keep up the good work.

I just upgraded my Ultralingua Latin app, and I am blown away! This is wonderful. Easy to read, comprehensive, informative, showing word history (roots and origins in earlier languages), complete and accessible complete conjugations. I am really impressed. Thanks so much. LatinMom

If your looking for a basic latin to English dictionary then this is a good app, but it needs to include the conjugations and declintions. The conjugations and declintions are so important in Latin that this app will not be very helpful until it includes them.

Logistically this is a great app just like Ultralingua's other apps. As far as quality of information (amount and accuracy) this app needs a lot of work though. I am disappointed at the lack of accuracy in the translations for some words and at the fact that when I look up a noun or verb I do not see declension number or principle parts. Please update, I trust Ultralingua's apps to be of high quality.

If this app had verb conjugations it would be far more valuable. If you could also put on here a table for all 5 noun declensions, that would also be very helpful. Other than that this app is a quick and convenient way to get a definition, and if you are proficient with Latin you should be able to conjugate on your own. Also, the forms of irregular verbs should be added.

Just the basic basic words. Almost useless.
