Pick a root, then click any term to decode it.
The whole language is built from a small set of reusable parts. Click any block to decode an example word that uses it.
The same root surfaces again and again. One Latin or Greek ancestor, and its children across the Romance languages — Italian, Spanish, Romanian, French — plus the English words built from it. This is the literal knowledge base: learn a root once and four new languages stop being strangers.
