Lesson Contents

Examples of Practical Sentences
Dialogues include phrases such as "Мисля, че трябва да започнем всички сесия в 10 часа." (I think we should start the session at 10 o'clock) or "Това звучи по-добре за мен." (That sounds better to me), illustrating natural office communication.
Language Notes
Bulgarian uses the Cyrillic alphabet, which differs from the Latin script used in English. This lesson helps learners get accustomed to reading and speaking Bulgarian in a professional context.
Unlike English sentence structures, Bulgarian often positions verbs and subjects differently and uses definite articles as suffixes (работна среща means "the work meeting"). Useful phrases include greeting participants: "Аз съм съгласен" (I agree) or politely assigning tasks: "Практивувайте общуване" (Practice communication).
Understanding these subtleties will improve your confidence in Bulgarian office settings.
