Numen - The Latin Lexicon is an online Latin dictionary (a dictionary of the Latin Language) based on multiple sources, including An Elementary Latin Dictionary (by Charlton T. Lewis) and A Latin Dictionary (by Lewis and Short) (A Latin Dictionary at Perseus). This online dictionary is different from any other you've ever used. It has been built from the ground up using AJAX technology (sometimes referred to as Web 2.0) to allow the fastest, most efficient and most useful user interface.
The dictionary is in a constant state of flux as words are added, subtracted and modified. It was written by Keith Alexander Woodell, master's student, graduate Teaching Assistant and Grading Assistant in Classics at the University of New Mexico (UNM, UNM Foreign Languages and Literatures). All inquiries should be addressed to me at: efesar@unm.edu. Feel free to send feedback.
