Learning Bulgarian language

since Love (обичам) is already conjugated for I, you can drop "az".

so, аз обичам те още, would become обичам те още

and for съм, you can drop AZ, because съм is already conjugated for I. **right?

Yes, you right.

If I can drop az because sam is present, then do I reorder my sentence?

Az sam vuv vlaka.
Sam vuv vlaka.

I highly appreciate all your help. I am leaving for Bulgaria in just under 2 weeks!

Az sam vuv vlaka., when u drop az u can say "Vuv vlaka sam"

I was right? I was right? I WAS RIGHT?????


***and for the whole -sum thing, you have to re-order that in the sentece because i think you cannot start a sentence with sum? right?

So then "sam" would be placed at the end of the sentence, always?

I have a feeling my in-laws are just going to smile and nod a lot.

Yes "sum" stays at the end most of the times so don't worry
And no matter if u make mistakes the fakt that u try is more importand and they'll be happy with that I'm sure

^thats what i say.

but i get mad when i make mistakes . hahah

No need to get mad , that is part of the learning,I make mistakes all the time in english and in German but it's normal

i know, but i dont like mistakes.

i cannot wait until i am fluent in bulgarian.


** what does ако mean?

"Ако" means If

Ако бях там = If I was there.

does "po veche ot predi" mean: more than ever?

it means 'more than before' and it's 'poveche'
'more than ever' is 'poveche ot vsyakoga'

thank you solenka!

I don't know why you said it's right there is a mistake
it should be "Аз още те обичам" this means " I still love you" not " Аз обичам те още" wich litteraly means "I love you still"
but besides that you are right you can drop "аз"

Hey Veronika, are these the Serbian equivalents to some of the Bulgarian letters?
Bulgarian-Serbian
Й=ј
Я=ја

i get confused when people use j's so it's hard for me to tell if its a "ya" or "zh"
haha

Haha, I get confused for the same reason. I see J as Y like in most Eastern European languages, so I prefer to use zh or ž when dealing with Ж lol.

i was told that още те обичам and обичам те още mean the same thing.
well literally/when you take it word by word it will mean "i love you still".

BUT- I still love you, AND I love you still = mean the same thing, it's just a different word order.
