81Scitum inter Protogenen et eum quod accidit.A circumstance that happened to him in connection with Protogenes is worthy of notice.

‘Ab hoc,’ inquit Apelles adreptoque penicillo lineam ex colore duxit summae tenuitatis per tabulam.“Here he is,” was the reply of Apelles, and seizing a brush, he traced with colour upon the panel an outline of a singularly minute fineness.

A few days later,
it comes back with its sentence.

A minute at the bus stop is enough for one question. Every answer is saved as you go.

Review

Plinius, Naturalis Historia 35.81

…lineam ex colore duxit summae tenuitatis per tabulam.

linea/ˈliː.ne.a/

What does it mean in this sentence?

Then it turns up in a video.

Subtitles come in two lines, the original over its translation. The words you’re learning light up in them; tap one, and WordLinea remembers the exact second.

Linea autem sine latitudine longitudo.A line is breadthless length.

Lectio prima: punctum, linea, superficies.

Everything you’ve read stays.

A word keeps each meaning it has had, with the sentence you met it in. Take it apart to see where it came from and which words grew from it, then save it as a picture to share.
