Once you launch the application, you will notice its simple and intuitive interface, manageable by any user. You will be able to easily find the meaning of any word/phrase written in ancient dialect related to Greek and Latin.
All you have to do in order to use this efficient tool is to select the type of action you wish to perform (look up a word in the dictionary, morphological search, browse to a specific passage, etc.), choose the proper database to look for the entered text and enter the query.
Unfortunately, the application won't come with many integrated databases; if you are looking for a more accurate search, download more databases from publishers like Thesaurus Linguae Graecae and the Packard Humanities Institute.
