Letters from the Officina

Carved, not crammed

Your free newsletter from Lapicida Latinus

There’s work going on in the officina — on sentences, on vocabulary, on tools for learning Latin. Every two months I’ll write and tell you what came of it.

What’s inside

• What’s new — new content, new trainers, improvements to the app
• A word with a history — why res means everything and nothing, and how to remember it
• When reading is hard — what actually helps with dyslexia, for parents and for learners
• From the blog — grammar made clear, translation help, background
• A look at the workbench — what I’m building right now, and why

The newsletter is new. So you’re here from the very start — and you’ll watch this grow.

If your child is learning Latin and you want to help without knowing Latin yourself: I write for you too.
