Learning Latin vocabulary, the easier way
For millennia, Latin has been a punishing mistress to millions of students. But Brainscape has tamed the dragon, distilling its teachings down into bite-sized question-and-answer Latin vocabulary flashcards. Where before there seemed to be an insurmountable mass of words, verb suffixes, and sentence construction protocols, is now a clear and steady ascent towards Latin mastery.
Brainscape’s Latin flashcards make learning this ancient language much easier and more efficient—which is far more motivating—and this means you’ll soon be plowing through the historical works of Cicero, while your classmates are still trying to count to 10.
Also, because Brainscape's Latin vocabulary flashcards are designed in accordance with key cognitive science principles, you’ll remember what you learn for much longer!
*Cog·ni·tive: late 16th century: from medieval Latin cognitivus, from cognit- ‘known’, from the verb cognoscere
Brainscape's Latin vocabulary flashcards help you learn faster and remember for longer
The brain is hardwired to learn and remember information a certain way. The Brainscape™ flashcard app was born out of the question: what if we leveraged this hardwiring to help students learn more efficiently? Fueled by curiosity, our team of cognitive scientists from Columbia and Yale spent years developing a scientifically optimized learning platform to boost your learning.
Our "secret sauce" is a learning algorithm that delivers information to your brain in a way that optimizes its ability to retain that information. And it’s the spaced repetition of Latin content at precisely the right interval for YOUR brain that makes Brainscape so effective for remembering the facts.
