I'm a Python developer who is really interested in learning Latin.
So while I learn Latin, I've decided to start a project where it can easily generate questions like English-Latin, Latin-English or grammar questions (eg. what case a word is in).
This should be a better alternative to websites like Quizlet or Blooket, where you have to enter your own questions and set your own answers.
I started on the project a few days ago and have decided to record my progress.
Features I have added
- A function to convert a english noun to latin, with the arguments case, word and number
- This function uses words from the word list, and the words are in the 1st, 2nd or 4th declension
- A function to convert an english verb to latin, with the arguments word, person, number and tense
- This function also only uses words from the word list, and the words can be any tense and also any conjugation
Demos
Here is a demo of the noun function so far:
And here is a demo of the verb function:

uhh....this might be a little bit irrelevant, but you seem approachable.
Basically, I created a web framework named willpyre inspired mostly from ExpressJS and FastAPI There are plans for Flask-ish features (such as render()).
It supports:
The docs are at willpyre.readthedocs.org/.
Thanks for reading this :). Really thanks.
It is
this is amazing! you made it yourself-?
Thanks for seeing it .
Yup. Completely. I started from this article and then added features.
Could you maybe use this to make a casual app? Tiny one.
I have some examples. This framework is useful since:
-> It can use SocketIO.
-> It is faster than Flask (2x appx) and a bit faster than FastAPI (no pun intended). I don't have the benchmarks right now, will surely add later.
-> It has an easy to use API.
-> It is well documented (imo).
I will also write some code (if needed) for the "casual app".
Can you please 🥺 create an app in this?

Just wanted to tell u that I just released the 3rd release of my big game in JS, FPS! Thought u’d like it if you want to try you can play here
nice game!
:) thanks I asked b/c i am huge fan and if someone like vulcanwm played my game itd feel amazing! Thanks, cant wait to see what you do next.
thanks dude!
As someone with many years of studying Latin in the past, this project is really interesting to me!
Do you have code somewhere public where I could take a look at it and maybe contribute?
Thanks for the support!
I’m keeping the Repo private while I’m working on the code.
I’ll let you know once I make the code open source!
I look forward to hearing more!
Hey, I've taken Latin before and this project seems really cool! Can't wait to see more updates!
Thanks! It’s great to know someone supports my idea
