Native-speaker verified · A1–B1

Learn real Cebuano, the way people actually speak it.

Native Cebuano is a daily Bisaya trainer built with a native speaker from Negros Occidental — 500+ everyday words and phrases, spaced repetition, and the grammar patterns textbooks skip.

Checked by a native Cebuano teacher 20–30 minutes a day Works online or fully offline
Maayong buntag!That's "good morning" — word #1 of 514 in the trainer.

Everything a real daily practice needs

No gamified filler. Just a focused system for building vocabulary and grammar you'll actually use.

Spaced repetition

A Leitner-system review queue brings back words you got wrong sooner, and lets easy ones fade into longer intervals.

514 words & phrases

Everyday vocabulary across 21 categories — family, food, shopping, restaurant, travel, money, small talk, and more.

Real grammar, explained

The verb prefixes NAG-, MAG-, MO-, NI-, NA-, the existential NAA, and intermediate patterns like MURAG and GI- — the parts phrasebooks skip.

Sentences in 3 tenses

Verbs come with real past / present / future example sentences, so you see the grammar in action, not just a translation.

A streak that respects your time

A daily sun-ray streak tracker and per-category progress — built for a sustainable 20–30 minutes a day, not marathon cramming.

Online or fully offline

From greetings to grammar — built around situations you'll actually be in.

Who's behind this

Built by two people who learned it the real way

Not a language-app factory — a home-grown project, checked word by word before it ever reached you.

Stefan Rosenwald

Built the trainer from scratch, originally just to learn Cebuano for his own family — spaced repetition, grammar drills, and all — then turned it into something others could use too.

Questions people ask

Do I need to know any Cebuano already?+

No — the trainer starts at A1 (complete beginner) and builds up to B1, so you can start from zero.

Is this really checked by a native speaker?+

Yes. Every word, sentence, and grammar explanation was reviewed and corrected by a Cebuano teacher from Negros Occidental — including tricky details like Spanish-derived numbers for time and money.

What happens after I pay?+

You get full access to the online trainer immediately, plus a download link for the offline version. Both are unlocked with the same one-time payment.
