About this app

The content and features of the application are for free. However, in order to support continuity and future development, we offer premium features: offline learning, bookmarks, statistics, more customized learning, and some other features. Thank you for your support.

Ginoskos offers courses on Greek and Hebrew grammar. These courses will lead you through essential parts of Greek and Hebrew grammar. Every grammatical topic can be trained with exercises. Lessons include a short summary of key points and grammatical charts.

Ginoskos helps you with building up your vocabulary by providing various kinds of exercises. You can train both vocabulary and grammar. When you start doing some exercise Ginoskos will track your learning progress and make sure that you will gradually review already learned items (the app reflects the knowledge of the forgetting curve).
Further, there are special exercises for learning frequency vocabularies for both Greek and Hebrew from the most occurring words to the less. There are vocabularies of particular passages and also of the whole biblical books.

• Grammar courses: learn the specific grammar of ancient Greek or Hebrew
• Vocabulary building: build your vocabulary by learning words of a passage, the whole biblical book, or a specific topic (like a Christological terms)
• Reviews: scheduled reviews help to refresh words in your memory reflecting the knowledge of the forgetting curve

This is a well-designed language tool. As someone else has said, it is great for vocabulary, but could use more development in the grammar lessons and exercises. There is a nice balance between the free and the paid version. The free version was good enough to learn everything, but the paid version allowed for further tweaks to the exercises. Wishlist: Practice on missed items. Personal challenges with your followers. More detailed answers to prevent duplicates I.e. hair and hair for θριξ.

Best biblical-language app by far (that I've found) for vocab building. Also includes grammar courses but I can't fully comment on these as I already learnt elements of Greek outside the app, but they do look useful for beginners. As well as NT Greek it covers Hebrew, plus core frequency vocabularies for Latin, Aramaic, Syriac and Coptic. There's an active community, it's very motivating to try to maintain a place on the various leaderboards. Highly recommended!

Awesome app! Wish there were some more Hebrew grammar lessons/exercises and that all the Hebrew words could all be listened to, but otherwise amazing app!!
