Learning Bulgarian language

Hmm..propel u really surprised me with some puttings... Why did u decide that общежитие has to be общежития ?It's общежитието.
Also some other mistakes:

The rest are correct.But I want all of them to be correct!
That's why new ones

молив
животно
котка

Hiya,

I've noticed in some previous posts that you use the latin characters: '4' , '6', 'q', 'w'.

What are their corresponding Bulgarian letters in Cyrillic?

(Examples: nosq, vireq, postavqme, vodqt, obi4ame, to4no, ikonomi4eski.)

4= ch [ч]
6= sh [ш]
q= ya [я]
w= v [в]

q - я
4 - ч
6 - ш
w - в

Thank you guys for your replies.


I'd like to know about the use of the 'Present Perfect' and 'Past Perfect' tenses in Bulgarian.
In English, when we use either the 'Present Perfect' or 'Past Perfect' forms of a verb, we add the words 'has / have / had' with the 'Past Participle' form of a verb.

For example, how would you translate those sentences using the 'Present perfect' tense in Bulgarian (in Cyrillic):

1. I have lost my keys. Have you seen my keys?
2. He has taken the card. Has he taken the card?
3. The postman have delivered a packet for you. Have you received it / Have you got it ?
4. You have got to see this new film. Have you watched this new film?
5. I have not been to Bulgaria. Have you been to Bulgaria in the last year?

Suppose we use the 'Past Perfect' tense in the above sentences, what would be the Bulgarian translations?
Are there any kind of general grammatical rules regarding the use of the 'Present Perfect' and the 'Past Perfect' tenses in Bulgarian ?

1. I have lost my keys. Have you seen my keys?
2. He has taken the card. Has he taken the card?
3. The postman have delivered a packet for you. Have you received it / Have you got it ?
4. You have got to see this new film. Have you watched this new film?
5. I have not been to Bulgaria. Have you been to Bulgaria in the last year?
Uff..it's kinda hard to explain its meaning in bg..
I have lost my keys can be said as" Загубил съм си ключовете." But also as "Загубих си ключовете" /I lost my keys.It has no difference.
Question: Виждал ли си ми ключовете?
I think "I have done ...." it's best translated litearally as" Напрашил съм.." but it's not always in that way cause in bulgarian there isn't difference between having done something in no concrete time and having done something at an exact moment... I think I didn't explain it well...Sorry

So what would be the translations for those 5 sentences?

1. I have lost my keys. Have you seen my keys?
Izgubil sym si kluchovete. Vijdal li si mi kluchovete?
2. He has taken the card. Has he taken the card?
Toi e vzel kartata. Vzel li e toi kartata?
3. The postman have delivered a packet for you. Have you received it / Have you got it ?
Poshtalionyt e donesyl paket/kolet za teb. Poluchil/Poluchi li si go?
4. You have got to see this new film. Have you watched this new film?
Trqbva da vidish tozi nov film. Gledal li si tozi nov film?
5. I have not been to Bulgaria. Have you been to Bulgaria in the last year?
Ne sym bil v Bulgariq. Bil li si v Bulgariq prez poslednata godina ?


well I would say that Present perfect is translated in Bulgarian as "Минало неопределено време" (past indefinite tense) [zagubil sum si kluchovete]
and if the sentance is translated as [zagubih si luchovete] it would be in "Минало свършено време" (past finished tense )

From what I see it looks like there is no 'present/past perfect' tense in the Bulgarian grammar. You just use the present and past tenses. Is that right ?

This isn't correct in all forms
U can't say "Poluchi li si go?" .It's only "Poluchi li go?"
Also "Vizhdal li si mi kljuchovete".
