yes i do.

Според мен просто са били принудени да я приемат за вярна.. петнадесет е доста мъчно за изговаряне и де факто никой не я използва.Лично аз предпочитам другата...на мен "петнадесет" ми звучи някак...снобско :lol

Е, така или иначе, доста думи не се изговарят, както се пишат, но въпреки това си ги пишем по правилния начин На мен "петнайсет" ми звучи супер .. селско, и ,въпреки че произнасям "петнайсет", пиша "петнадесет" hah :}

Е, има и много по-селски от петнайсет... някои казват "петнаесе" лол

I think we should test ya at msn or skype(when u creat a skype-account which I hope will be soon ) ...only me and Niki have msn and it's more difficult there.

yes create a skype account Matt my loving husband lol then we may all talk together!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what is skype? haha ive heard of it, and i dont know what it is!

ppl please don't make of that thread a chit-chat..Matt u can search in google bout skype..it's extremely popular in Bulgaria... but please no more conversations bout skype here!
Matt do u know those words& expressions too?

ok i will, sorry



not all, but most! i will learn those soon!

http://skypeblog.eu/2008/04/skype-38.html <--- Here a link Matt, where you can download Skype and install at your PC Click on the text "Изтегли Skype 3.8". I recommend you this version , not the newest one 4.0, 'cause its interface is more simplified than the 4.0 version Also, The both, I and Tedi, have scaners, so if you want something like magazines, grammar lessons, phrases and so on, we will scan them to you

Uh now I understand what you ment Tedi about bulgarians making mess on the forum everywhere haha .... we should open for you like million topics (or every topic should have a name like): bulgarian chit-chat 1, bulgarian chit-chat 2, bulgarian chit-chat 3, bulgarian chit-chat 578256746

And what about numbers, I was taught that both versions are correct, but I never use those ones: petnadeset i t.n. ... they just sound unnatural ... maybe people who lived in bulgaria long time ago and went away to another country speak like that :P My grandmother would have spoken petnadeset ... if she were bulgarian not lithuanian of course haha

Matt I think you know how to make plurals from feminine forms, now it's time for masculine and neuter

yes i do! bring on the Mascualine and Neuter!!!!

So, I'll start with neuter, because it's easier ;D As you know, neuter nouns ends with -o (leglo [bed], ezero [lake]) or -e (shishe [bottle]). This is how you do it:
a) neuter nouns ended with -o
- you change "o" into "a" -> leglo = legla, ezero = ezera
- article to plural neuter forms ended with -o is "ta" -> leglata, ezerata
b) nauter nouns ended with -e
- you add "ta" to make them plural -> shishe = shisheta, momiche = momicheta
- article to plural neuter forms ended with -e is also "ta" -> shishetata, momichetata

So now some words for you:
tango [tango]
doverie [trust]
kino [cinema]
lice [face]
obrazovanie [education]
pole [field]

танга - тангата
довериета - довериетата
кина - кината
лицета - лицетата
образованиета - образованиетата
полета - полетата

Доверие - Доверия - Доверията
Лице - Лица - Лицата
Образование - Образования - Образованията

ppl ppl ppl! There's a thread about grammer (Learning Bulgarian language) pls
Or u wanna Spring to come here and close the thread and mess it with the another one???

Well ... There's a dictionary aswell ... :}}

Yea, I agree with lopatka :P Anyways in every phrasebook there must be a lilttle grammar too ... ok ok I forgot to write it in learning bulgarian language because Propel asked me here and I forgot in which subject we are, forgive me lord for I have sinned, booosz ... And sorry Propel, I forgot to tell you about neuter nouns ended with -ie ... damn ... fogive me lord for I have sinned part 2

ehhhh! you didnt tell me about -ie!!!

hahahha

wait.. i new about -ie!

hahah

like... obeshtanie - obeshtaniya or opravdanie - opravdaniya....nali?

hah for some reason i didnt add it

"Лице - Лица - Лицата"

i thought e > you add 'ta'?
