Availability of learn-bulgarian.net

Hey there!

In the past three days we had some problems with our server and for a lot of users the website was not available at all. We are very sorry about that.

Consequence: We moved learn-bulgarian.net yesterday to a new and more powerful server. So we hope that this will prevent such incidents in the future.

Thanks for your patience!

Best regards and looking forward,
Michel

Bulgarian Dictionary

Hey there!

We just launched a Bulgarian dictionary to translate words from English to Bulgarian. The translator works quite well for single words, but of course it has sometimes its problems to translate the meaning of a sentence (like every “automated translator” has). We recommend to check it out and to bookmark it in your browser, so you can access the Bulgarian dictionary at any time with a single click.

Visit the English Bulgarian Dictionary now.

We plan to launch also a Bulgarian-English dictionary in future if it is desired by the users. Please write a comment if you are interested in this feature or if you have any other feedback for the Bulgarian dictionary.

By the way, if you are not yet able to read the Cyrillic alphabet, then sign up on the right side to receive our study materials and the notification of our course, where you will learn the Bulgarian alphabet easily.

Hello in Bulgarian

How to say hello in Bulgarian? It’s not always done with a simple word. But you can learn here within 2 minutes how to greet in Bulgarian.

If you talk to a single person, whom you know very well, you say “zdrasti” or “zdravey” and if you talk to a group of friends you say just “zdraveyte”.

There is a difference if you say hello to someone, whom you don’t really know yet. Then you greet according to the daytime. In the morning you would say “dobro utro”, during the day “dobar den” and at evening you greet this person with “dobar vecher”.

Watch the following video, which will show you how to pronounce the words correctly.
