    yes guys i will tell u the genders in bulgarian as much as i can
    there r 3 genders in bulgarian .. masculine(myjki rod),feminine(jenski rod) and middle(sreden rod)..
    masculine words generally finish with an unvoiced letter..
    edin myj(man)
    edin vestnik(newspaper)
    edin avtobus(bus)
    feminine words generally finish with -a or -q(я)
    edna ulica(street)
    edna dyrjava(country)
    edna jena(woman)
    but there r some words they seem like masculine but they r feminine.i know that they had some letters at tha end of them in ancient bulgarian. but now they r not exist
    ednA esen(autumn)
    ednA pesen(song)
    ednA nosht(night)
    and the middle finish with -o or -e
    edno nebe(sky)
    edno momche(boy)
    edno syrce(heart)

    By "unvoiced" you probably mean "consonant".

    Yes, however, there are exceptions from that rule too.

    well,it`s not very easy to be explained but i will try to tell it that way..E.G. let`s take the word "turn" in that case we read "U" in the same way as "ъ"...i don`t know if that is a good example..good luck

    Hey guys!

    I have a question. I've read somewhere that bulgarian nouns and adjectives are inflective. Is that true? And how can I decline them? And what about the genders? I'm so confused...

    Yes U r right,bulgarian is not like english,the adjectives r inflective and it depends on the noun.turhanbg explain it pretty good with the genders.
    When U inflect usually the adjectives as they r for a masculine(myjki rod)-barz-fast;umen-clever;sramezhliv-shy
    For feminine(jenski rod) we usually put "a" in the end-barza;umna;sramezhliva
    And for the middle(sreden rod) we put "o"-barzo,umno,sramezhlivo

    The past simple tense is nothing special.We use the past tense of the verbs,which is formed sometimes with a change of the last vowel in the verb with "E" and U put "X"(h) in the end.I don't know if there is any rule about this change U just have to learn them
    EX.Obicham te-I love U;Obichah te-I loved U
    Molia te ne go pravi-I beg U,don't do it;Molih te da ne go pravish-I beged U,not to do it.
    Chudia se kak e toi-I wonder how is he;Chudeh se kak e toi-I was wondering how is he.
    Mislia che toi shte doide-I think he'll come;Misleh che toi shte doide-I thought he'll come.

    I'm sorry for the bad explaining,I'm really trying to be clear but U know I'm not a teacher

    and ermalak "ь" changes "o" to "ö" in turkish. like боксьор its the same in turkish boksör (boxer)...
    if "ю" is the first letter we say it as "yu" i.e ютия=yutiya and it comes from "ütü"(iron) in turkish but if its not at the first we say it like "ü" in turkish.i.e тютюн=tütün (tobacco)
