Good luck learning Georgian without this 🥲.
This course is the result of 1,5 years of research with German and Russian sources, as well as Georgian language experts.
It combines a practical approach to speaking the language, with only the essential grammar. We created it while living in Kutaisi together with locals, and based on our experience with language learning.
Lingophant is a start-up from Vienna with a Georgia office and we used this course to test our unique method that. There is no other course that combines this level of audio resources, phrases explained and recorded by humans, and short but powerful grammar videos.
And we have a 30-day money back guarantee to prove it!

Some concepts are really confusing, like verbs or suffixes. And good explanations are rare. Especially the verb system is what makes Georgian “rtuli". We have 20+ shorts on Instagram teaching this for free. By buying this course, you get the basics to recognise patterns.
Phrases by a Native Speaker
Lucas explains 6 sets of essential phrases, from the Bazari, to greetings, to expressing likes and dislikes. Memorise these phrases with the correct pronunciation using our own Lingophant App. This gives you the confidence to speak.
Train your listening skills.
You’ve likely noticed how people speaking in Georgian are almost impossible to understand. We prepared 9+ videos with double subtitles. Use these to read along with the Latin alphabet and the translation. Only this way, you can recognise the words people say, and practice listening to real people.

Created by experienced language learners living in Kutaisi.
The Georgian language is almost impossible for foreigners to learn without a good introduction.
We literally read through old German and Russian books trying to understand the system behind it.
As experienced language learners and teachers ourselves, we made this course out of passion trying to understand one of the oldest, most difficult yet beautiful languages. It was a lot of work for a small language with so few learners.
However, we sincerely think there is no better introduction. Judge for yourself with our 30-day money back guarantee.

P.S. The more people sign up for our course, the more content we will still add ^^

Why do you think you can teach this?
We’re experienced language learners, and this content is literally what we’ve been missing so badly.
We've spent countless hours discussing the best way to teach this language and checked the correctness with teachers from university and linguist friends.
On Instagram, even Georgians are amazed by the quality of our content !
How would you describe your method?
A natural approach, supported with technology. You’ll listen to real people talking and recognise patterns naturally. Our brains are actually machines for understanding input, and need exposure to comprehensible input.
The complexity of Georgian grammar requires the ability to recognise these patterns. In line with current L2 acquisition research, we keep it short and explain the essentials for you to recognise in real-life.
Memorizing useful phrases is done with our Lingophant App, to build your active vocabulary. That way, you’ll know more than a hundred correct phrases. This will give you the confidence to start expressing yourself.
You’ll be proud from the happy faces of Georgians towards foreigners trying to understand and speak their language.
How do I continue after this course?
Afterwards, you know the basics and you can then have efficient lessons with a teacher. At the end we recommend how to find one and how to work together efficiently.
With our app, you can continue building a vocabulary that is professional, fun, or just personalised. Just meet a friend or find a teacher to record new phrases each week. And practice them in-between. It's a natural approach.
