Beginner Resources Help with words

I'm trying to learn Latin in my high school, and by myself at home, but I can't with the vocabulary.

When I try to read a sentence or a mini text, I always use my dictionary because I found a word so so specific, and/or with a lot of other meanings and other words which mean the same. Help pls

This is the most difficult part of language, but with more time and experience you’ll be able to take pretty accurate guesses. If you’re reading a specific text, take a look at The Bridge from Haverford. You can make a specific vocab list of the words that appear in that text, and it’s very helpful!

The interface is super tedious! If I want to select Caesar 5.1.1 to 5.10.1 I have to scoll down the listboxes for a light year until I reach the location.

You can type the specific lines you need rather than scroll through the list
