Gabi-gabi?
I was reading somewhere gabi-gabi means every night. Araw-araw means everyday. Can you say umaga-umaga (every morning?) and hapon-hapon (every afternoon?) Does this work for almost everything i.e. tao tao for every person, oras oras for every time, etc? If not how would you say every_____ such as every person/ everybody, everything, everything, etc. Salamat.

uma-umaga or Kada umaga
Kada hapon
lahat ng tao=all of the people
lahat dito=everyone here
lahat ng bagay=everything
you have to memorize or get use to the application or phrases.
Tagalog has a lot of phrases not so common as it depends on the context. We have a lot of idiomatic expressions.in our language and a single word will mean differently depending on the use of the word. Same as in English, there are lot of word meanings depending on the context.

"umaga-umaga" isn't used. you can say "kada umaga" or "tuwing umaga" to mean "every morning"
"hapon hapon" is used seldomly to say "every afternoon" you can use instead "kada hapon" or "tuwing hapon"
"tao tao" doesnt mean "every person" and isnt actualy used.
"oras oras" is used to mean "every hour",
"minu minuto" means "every minute"
well, I can't say there is a definitive rule on these "salitang inuulit" (repeated words)
there are other repeated words which are used in other contexts aside from "every... "
