Description:

Learning Ancient Greek? If you're using the Cambridge University Press textbook "Reading Greek," by the Joint Association of Classical Teachers (JACT), JACT Vocab is here to help. It's a set of nearly 1300 virtual flashcards, representing the entire vocabulary to be memorized as you go through the textbook.

The flashcards are presented in the same order as the vocabulary in the textbook. Or, look up any word in alphabetical order.

The English translation of each Greek word can be hidden or shown at will, great for self-testing. Pick a section or sections to drill in random order.

This vocabulary is keyed to the second edition of "Reading Greek."

Excellent

Excellent way to learn and drill ancient Greek vocab. You don't have to buy the books to learn from this, but I do recommend the books also.

Excellent Learning Tool. 2 Suggestions

You can't learn a language without learning vocabulary and that requires either wearing out the pages of a dictionary or memorization. And memorization requires drilling oneself on words. This app is perfect for that. The fact that it is keyed to the different sections and lessons is a bonus. And it's clear, clean, and easy to use. If the developer wanted to add a couple of improvements, I would suggest these two: 1. Add a separate field that could be used to enter the declension of nouns, as the JACT textbooks do. E.g., 1a, 2b, 3f, etc. This would help the student learn the class to which the noun belongs as well as its meaning. Why a separate field? See suggestion 2. 2. And to make this more powerful, allow some sorting capabilities on parts of speech and, following up on the suggestion above, sorting on noun classes. Sometimes one might want to drill just on adverbs. Or on nouns of the declension 3c. Or prepositions, etc. For anyone using the JACT Greek program, this is an invaluable tool, whether for iPad, iPhone, or both. Kudos to Matt Neuburg for a great app that eases learning a classical language, helping to bridge the ancient world with the modern. Four stars only because of the suggested missing elements.

A very handy app

After a hiatus, I am returning to ancient Greek and using the JACT textbooks. This is a very handy app to master the vocabulary for these text. Easy to use and accurate. Thanks for doing this!

just downloaded

just downloaded this app and it looks pretty good. you can review words by section but i'm not sure if there's a way to review all words up to a certain section. i'm currently in the 3rd semester of the jact book and this will save me a lot of time 'cause i was gonna make my own flash cards. very nice app.

Great app

This is a great app, which helped me loads with my ancient geek GCSE revision. I would recommend that each word could include stuff like cases and irregular tenses, but overall it is very helpful.
Core Foundation Framework
Core Foundation is a framework that provides fundamental software services useful to application services, application environments, and to applications themselves. Core Foundation also provides abstractions for common data types, facilitates internationalization with Unicode string storage, and offers a suite of utilities such as plug-in support, XML property lists, URL resource access, and preferences.
Core Graphics
The Core Graphics framework is based on the Quartz advanced drawing engine. It provides low-level, lightweight 2D rendering with unmatched output fidelity. You use this framework to handle path-based drawing, transformations, color management, offscreen rendering, patterns, gradients and shadings, image data management, image creation, and image masking, as well as PDF document creation, display, and parsing.
Foundation Framework
The Foundation framework provides a base layer of functionality for apps and frameworks, including data storage and persistence, text processing, date and time calculations, sorting and filtering, and networking. The classes, protocols, and data types defined by Foundation are used throughout the macOS, iOS, watchOS, and tvOS SDKs.
Launch Services
macOS Launch Services is an API that enables a running app to open other apps or their document files, similar to the Finder or the Dock.Launch Services eliminates apps having to query the Finder to open an app, document, or URL for them. The macOS Finder itself uses Launch Services to perform such tasks. Because the Finder performs no additional processing beyond calling Launch Services, any client using Launch Services for these purposes behaves identically to the Finder.
Quartz Core Framework
Allow users to browse, edit, and save images, using slideshows and Core Image filters.The Quartz Composer API supports processing and rendering graphical data and allows developers to create custom patches for the Quartz Composer developer tool. ImageKit provides user interface support for browsing, editing, and saving images, showing slideshows, and browsing and previewing Core Image filters. PDFKit is a technology that allows applications to display and manipulate PDF documents.
WebKit
WebKit provides a set of classes to display web content in windows, and implements browser features such as following links when clicked by the user, managing a back-forward list, and managing a history of pages recently visited.
MessageUI
The Message UI framework provides specialized view controllers for presenting standard composition interfaces for email and SMS (Short Messaging Service) text messages. Use these interfaces to add message delivery capabilities without requiring the user to leave your app.
UIKit
The UIKit framework (UIKit.framework) provides the crucial infrastructure needed to construct and manage iOS apps. This framework provides the window and view architecture needed to manage an app’s user interface, the event handling infrastructure needed to respond to user input, and the app model needed to drive the main run loop and interact with the system.
