Tarsier: Learn Tagalog

Tarsier is a Tagalog app built only for Tagalog. Every lesson starts from how the language works: root words, affixes, verb focus, the ang/ng/sa markers, and the Taglish you'll hear in real conversation.

Whether you grew up hearing Tagalog at home but never learned to speak it, or you're picking it up for the first time, Tarsier teaches a few words at a time and then puts them to use in a conversation.
