From annotation
to edition.
Commentarius takes classical texts from raw notes to press-quality commentary: morphological analysis, vocabulary, grammatical notes, and apparatus, typeset for print, the web, and the classroom.
Latin·ἀρχαία Ἑλληνική·संस्कृतम्
1arma virumque — the poem’s two subjects, war and the man, in emphatic first position; canō answers the Homeric incipit. A&G §598f
2fātō — ablative of cause with profugus: exiled by fate, not by guilt. A&G §404
3lītora — accusative of place to which without preposition, a poetic construction. A&G §428g

- Upload Paste the Latin and drop in scanned commentaries (PDF, DOCX, or plain text; OCR is included).
- Dry run The first chapter only, for a few cents. Read real notes before committing to the book.
- Release the rest One click. Chapters move in parallel while a live meter shows what the run has cost.
- Edit together Margin comments, held-back suggestions, version history, and @servius answering questions about its own notes.
- Export Word for colleagues, HTML for the web, paste-ready DCC fields for Drupal.

Every station on the map is also a tool
For one-off jobs (a single handout, one merge, one vocabulary list), run any stage by hand from your project.
The tools scholars actually reach for
The most-used tools on Commentarius are the ones that do the tedious work: building vocabulary lists tuned to what students don’t already know, formatting raw notes into clean commentary, and merging generations of scholarship into one working document. And wherever the platform makes a grammatical claim, it attaches the Allen & Greenough section — so you check it against the grammar book, not against our word.
