Hey, I can't find an email to contact you so I'll leave a message here. This is absolutely amazingly fantastic! Thank you so much.

I've been learning ancient Greek by myself for a year or two, on and off, with Athenaze etc. This year I had an idea about reading the New Testament, and have a nice Reader's Edition, but it was very slow going. I somehow found this project, and began studying. I've tried using Anki in the past, but it hasn't stuck - studying individual words is too hard, I keep hitting "don't know" every time the word comes up. But sentences, and with the integrated lookup, was perfect! I remember the sentences much more quickly, and reviewing is fun, even if it's intense. Now my pattern is studying 20 new cards per day + reps every day of the week, and in the weekend sitting down for a few hours with my paper Greek bible... and now I feel like I can actually read through almost fluently, and actually focus on the story itself. An amazing experience!

I see that you are working on Latin as well, and I wonder if you have any plans for a Latin version? Otherwise I might try - or we could collaborate? I'd really like to read the whole bible in Latin as well, and it would be especially nice to start working on the new testament in Latin now that I already know parts of it in Greek - to make that connection. Do you have any plans for something like this?

Thanks again, this is literally life-changing for me.
