## What is Slangua?

Learn Indonesian the way people really speak it: short chat lessons, real slang and daily practice, not the stiff textbook version.

Chat with friendly locals in 3 minute lessons, tap any word to see why it works, and say it for real in everyday challenges. Slangua shows you how a phrase sounds from formal to street, so you pick the right tone.

START FROM ZERO
New to Indonesian? Begin with short lessons: you read a real chat, pick your reply, and learn the words as you go. "Apa kabar" is textbook. "Gimana kabarnya" is how friends talk. Slangua teaches the second one.

WHAT YOU GET
- Chat lessons: short, friendly, 3 minutes each
- Real-life challenges: thank the barista, greet a neighbor, order food, and tick it off when you did it
- Practice: quick cards bring back the words that start to fade, with audio
- Progress: see your memory grow and what to practise next
- Your words: every word you learn, in one place
- Four ways to say it: the same phrase as formal, polite, spoken and street
- Word sheets: tap a word to see its root, its formal and everyday form, and how people write it in chats
- Your own style: choose saya, aku or gue, and Slangua follows

TRANSLATE TOO
Type or paste any text and get a natural translation in four tones. Translate between Indonesian and English, and also Russian and Chinese. Switch to Learn mode for a word-by-word breakdown with colors, so you see exactly how each word works.

BUILT FOR REAL LIFE
Whether you live in Bali, travel through Indonesia, or text Indonesian friends, Slangua helps you sound natural instead of formal and robotic.

Start with your first lesson today and pick up the Indonesian they don't teach you in class.

### 1.14.7 — 2026-09-28

A big update. Slangua now teaches you more about every word and every sentence:

- New word sheets: tap a word to see how it is built (root + affix), how the formal and the everyday form differ, and how people really write it in chats.
- Natural phrasing: when you write a sentence yourself, Learn shows how a native speaker would say it, at all four levels from formal to street. Changed words are bold.
- History: star your favorite lookups, delete entries, and scroll back through your full history, not only the latest 100.
- English learners: choose US or UK English.
- Your stats stay visible when you are offline.
- Word breakdowns are more accurate: no more invented roots or fake prefixes.
- On iOS 26, sheets such as Stats and Word Map look native again: the screen behind them dims like in Apple's own apps.
- Fixes: the paste button on iOS 26, a crash when swiping away a message, translation direction, and onboarding.
