Graphics are pleasing as well. 👍 ### 5/5 — Awesome interface *2014-12-29* I love how the app quizzes you on new word parts as well as those that you identified incorrectly in earlier modules. ### 5/5 — Teach your child Latin! *2014-11-21, version 2.26* My children -ages 12-10-8-6- did not know how to "break down" a word. They have not been taught due to the now preferred "sight words" reading educational model. The phonics method is rarely used in our current curriculum. I see the need for my children to understand root words and this app is helpings with that. Simple~and effective. ### 5/5 — Great *2014-11-12, version 2.26* Great app. I just love it so much ### 5/5 — Very helpful! *2014-10-06* This is a great app if you are an adult studying for the GRE or a parent wanting to help your children's vocabularies grow. ### 5/5 — Simple and effective *2014-08-21* Helped me brush up on my vocabulary, and it's entertaining. ### 5/5 — Useful in an engaging way! *2014-08-20* I'm in a season in life where I want to understand English grammar more than ever. This app is playing a large role in supplementing this season. I recommend the app to all those looking for an excellent supplement to your new subject, or if you're refreshing your skill, like I am. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2014-08-01* This is and absolutely great game that helps anyone learn latin! It give u the base knowledge of roots that will help in Latin so it definitely helps to start with Latin roots before u learn latin so u get the just of what the words mean. This apps helps a ton and I totally recommend it. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Its ok at best *2025-11-09* Not what I excepted. The way the questions are worded could also be better ### 3/5 — Meh *2020-12-30* Not really for adults. It’s very easy. I just finished the whole game in like 15-20 minutes. Although, I did learn some things I didn’t know before. Not sure it’s worth the two bucks if you’re older and looking to deepen your understanding of words. It’s probably good for younger students though. ### 3/5 — Simple but nice app. *2015-04-26* This app has a very simple concept and reinforces well. It is better for adults with a wider vocabulary than for children. A nice time filler bored but won't teach you the language. ### 3/5 — Good *2015-04-17, version 2.280* Good ### 4/5 — Fun but needs more content *2017-08-04* This app is fun to use; it's sound and animation responses are encouraging and make sense. The difficulty curve is approachable and doesn't feel punishing when you make mistakes. It is missing a lot of roots, though, which makes it impractical for older kids and adults. This app would be a 5/5 and I'd recommend it to the moon and back if it had a difficulty setting other than jumping levels or if it added more levels. I'd happily buy more levels if I knew they included roots relevant to older kids and adults. As it is, it's a great intro to root words but not the best overall study tool. ### 4/5 — Fun *2016-08-30, version 2.400* This app was a fun and helpful way for my 7th grader to learn about Greek Morphemes! I highly recommend this app. ### 4/5 — RootWords *2016-04-09, version 2.300* Planning to use for 3rd graders-- so far so good. Id like to see the definition given for the root word! Thanks! ### 4/5 — Learn some root words *2014-09-16, version 2.24* This app is a fun way to learn a few Latin or Greek word roots. Many of our words are based on these. ### 4/5 — Quick and fun *2014-08-17, version 2.24* Aids improvement raidly ### 4/5 — Vocabulary Practice: Greek and Latin Root Words Vocabulary Game *2014-07-02, version 2.23* A great test and reinforcement exercises to build vocabulary and confidence. It also tests reasoning skills. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fun for learning Latin *2023-06-12* My 7 year old and I enjoy playing together ### 5/5 — The best app in the world *2020-08-14* Too good ### 5/5 — Useful *2020-07-21* We love this app. It makes learning Greek and Latin so easy. ### 5/5 — Pretty great for my 9yo! *2018-05-29* Colorful, fast-paced and easy.

They should provide a summary at the end of each lesson of the one you had difficulty. They should give you a list option you can save as PDF and print. ### 5/5 — Fun app *2016-07-30* I wanted to understand English, my native language, better. This app is fun, and in only a few minutes I learned a lot.

It is a great app. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
