LexFlex is a five-letter word game with a little history in every word. Guess the hidden word in six tries. Green is the right letter in the right spot, gold is in the word but elsewhere. When the game ends, see where the word comes from: its ancient Proto-Indo-European root and its cousins across languages. FREE • Unlimited classic games, with gentle hints • Challenges: send a word to a friend, see who solves it in fewer tries, and keep a head-to-head rating with each friend • Your rating, from Apprentice to Lexflex master: hard words solved in few tries lift it most • Where each word comes from, and how it sounds LEXFLEX PLUS (one purchase, no subscription; try it free for 14 days) • Daily practice: your day streak, your numbers, the rating chart, a calendar of days played, your score trend, milestones, a picture to share, and a daily reminder • My study: your own study book, written in as you play. Each word gets a handwritten page with its ancient root and etymology in the margin • My universe: one of your words at the centre, its root beside it, and its relatives on rings around it, from English, German and Latin to Greek, Russian, Sanskrit, Hindi and Persian, each in its own script with a transliteration and meaning, each read in its own voice • Honest etymology: uncertain links are marked uncertain, and words borrowed from Sanskrit into languages outside the family, like Malayalam, are labelled as borrowings • Ask by voice: “Where does heart come from?”, “Say seven in Hindi” PRIVATE No accounts, no ads, no tracking. Your games stay on your iPhone; voices and speech recognition run on the device.
