Shapes and Forms in Bulgarian
This lesson introduces basic vocabulary and expressions about shapes and forms in Bulgarian, designed for A1 level learners. By exploring common geometric terms and structures, you will gain simple but essential tools to describe objects and drawings, enriching your language use in everyday situations.
What You'll Learn

- Useful phrases to ask and answer questions about shapes.
Key Vocabulary
- квадрат – square

Lesson Details and Language Notes
The Bulgarian language uses gender and number agreement in adjectives describing shapes, a feature not present in English. For example, the adjective "квадратни" in "правилните форми" (the correct shapes) agrees in plural with the noun.
Bulgarian tends to use more specific nouns and agreement than English, so pay attention to these endings.
Useful Words and Differences
- форма – form or shape; a broad term used in many expressions.
- правилен – correct, proper; in talking about shapes, means standard or regular forms.
- този / тази / това – this (masculine/feminine/neuter); used for asking about shapes based on gender of the noun.
By mastering these basics, you will be able to describe and identify shapes in a simple and accurate way, which is fundamental for further conversations involving descriptions and directions.
