Q: What is YATIZ?

The story follows the lives of young people as they navigate school, friends, family, and the challenges faced by teenagers.
Q: Why is it called YATIZ?
A: The title "YATIZ" is based on a local expletive in the Philippines. While it doesn't have a direct English translation, it is similar to saying "WTF" in English. The term "Yati" or "Yatis" is often used when feeling annoyed or frustrated, but it can also be used in a joking manner among friends.
Q: What cultural context is important to know about YATIZ?
A: YATIZ is set in southern Mindanao, one of the three island groups in the Philippines. The characters will be speaking Cebuano or Binisaya, which is one of the main languages in the country.

Q: How does the education system work in the Philippines?
A: In the Philippines, the education system typically starts with elementary school (Grades 1 to 6), followed by three years of junior high school (Grades 7 to 10) where students study general subjects.

Q: Will the dialogues be in Cebuano/Binisaya?

Q: Will there be educational content in YATIZ?
