About this app

Developer Description

Practise Old English grammar & vocabulary on the move

The Old English language is at once recognisable and unfamiliar: many words resemble ones that are used today, but their meanings are not always the same, and they can take many more forms than in the modern language.

Liberation Philology Old English helps you master these complexities by practice. Wherever you have your phone handy, it is ready to drill you on Old English vocabulary and grammar with a continuous multiple-choice test. Your answers are immediately confirmed or corrected, and reinforced through repetition.

• Vocabulary: 150 levels, each testing the translation of ten words between modern and Old English. A further 330 levels cover the vocabulary of Beowulf in approximate sequence. Interspersed among these are cumulative levels reviewing what has been learned earlier. Interspersed among these are cumulative levels reviewing what has been learned earlier (giving a total of 542 levels).

• Nouns: Tests your ability to parse and decline all classes of Old English nouns.

• Verbs: Tests your ability to parse and conjugate a full range of weak, strong, and irregular verbs in Old English.

A further module allows you to review the vocabulary word-list and the noun and verb paradigms.

I gave the matter a little thought before buying this app. I know it's only 4 bucks so I didn't mind that. I simply didn't want to be disappointed by a piece of junk. But, lo to my very great surprise and pleasure, I found this app absolutely amazing. I read how some would like sound to go with the app. What I'd like and would happily pay for is an app addressing other parts of speech, preps, conjunctions, adverbs, etc. Thanks, keep the good work coming.

Amazing but would be better if it included audio recordings of pronunciations so I know what to say if I want to say the word(s). Otherwise, it's amazing.

I love that there is specifically vocabulary for Beowulf, however, in a "level" it appears to be pretty much random what word you get asked. Often times there are one to three words that I barely get asked while the words I know well appear often. That, unfortunately, is a waste of time. I do like the options to learn the declensions and verb forms. It would be amazing to be able to see all the vocab in this app and choose words not to appear (anymore) in the levels.

Just too slow. It takes over 200 correct answers to progress just 0 1%. I am still on level one vocab and have completed nearly 3 thousand correct answers to get to 99.3%. And this is the same few words over and over (approx 8 or so words). If younake amistake the correction times increase, and you lose your progress. Not designed to encourage progress but to give up. At this rate of having to achieve 100% it will take years to get anywhere. Dreadful design
