Ha..nice trade :wink:

But can we learn 2 languages in the same time!?
I would certainly try Wink

Bulgarian would be faaaaaab. Buh..

But of course, only if someone is willing to teach. :wink:

Yes it'll be very very nice !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why not?!

:study:
After all vids with AM I already know something Wink

It would be so nice to have bulgarian lessons! Wheee!!

I love the idea cheers

I like watching bulgarian TV - though I can understand almost nothing Smile

Great idea!
I was teacher for a year, so, this profession is very close to me Wink

So, let's start with some common phrases....

My name is .... - Казвам се (Kazvam se ....)
I'm ... years old - Аз съм на ... gодини (Az sam na .... godini) - I don't know how to transcribe the letter Ъ scratch

it's smth like the pronounciation of U in sun, fun... but not the same
Good morning - Добро утро (Dobro utro)
also Добър ден (Dobar den)
Good evening - Добър вечер (Dobar vecher)
Hello - Здравей (Здрасти) - zdravey, zdrasti

To be continued.... Very Happy

I'll try to explain, although I'm not so good in computers. What version of Windows you have, Alex? If it's XP, click with the right button on the icon of the languages, choose Options, you'll see a window with the languages you already have, then click on Add layout, another window will appear with two options - first you have to chose the country (Bulgaria, Russia... - you better chose Russia, because there are letters that we don't have on "our" keaboard Wink

) and then select the layouts - Russian. And click the button Add layout - this window will disappear, and click OK (the symbol √- it should work Wink

Vania, one question: Is it right that "Albena" in Bulgarian is pronounced like something similar to "Awbena"

?? I heard somewhere that in Bulgaria the "l" is sometimes pronounced like a "w". Is this correct??

Ледена Парзалка is SOOOOOO cute!!!! flower

No, generally it's not pronounced like this - in some regions "L" is pronounced like "U" indeed, but it's just a dialect.

Thanks Vania!!! zvet

I decided to post in the Bulgarian language section again ^.^ I always get confused with the little words like ами and ама, пак is also a problem word of mine... Can someone explain how to use them? Or do I have to rely on my non-existent feel for Bulgarian language? Thank you lots in advance...

tanuki i,ll try to help you.It is confusing and they sound almost the same but have different meaning.

ами = well
and
ама = but .

oh, thank you for replying ^^ can you think of some example sentences? heart2

tanuki wrote:: oh, thank you for replying ^^ can you think of some example sentences?

Sorry tanuki.The way i translated is still confusing . sunny

OK here is an example.

Well(ами) , i should,ve put them in a sentence but (ама) i was too lazy to do it. flower

Those two words have their equivalents and we used them mostly when we speak but not so often in writing .For exmple,ама could be replaced by но
I hope now is more clear heart2

but maybe Vania could help you and explain more . zvet

Viki, I couldn't explained it better Smile

I hope that now it's clear for you, Tanuki!
