Ugát is the only app that teaches you how words are constructed across the multiple languages of the Philippines. Not flashcards. Not phrase books. Real morphology, made welcoming. How it works: - Awaken a new root word each day, represented by an ugát anito - Discover the ways a single root can transform into multiple meanings - Create a daily routine that keeps you returning to nurture your roots! Built for if: - You grew up hearing Filipino but never learnt to speak it properly - You're a diaspora Filipino that wants to reconnect - You've tried other apps, but they felt generic and shallow - You want to understand the system, not just memorise phrases What makes Ugát different: - Construction-first: learn how affixes transform root words into real sentences - Deeply Filipino: every interaction is designed with Filipino culture in mind. We will never be a cookie-cutter language app. - Always free: we will always provide a generous free tier with real learning. Tagalog now, Cebuano in Beta. Ilocano, Hiligaynon, Chavacano and more coming. Let's start from the roots. Awaken your ugát!
