The Bulgarian Language and Culture

bulgarian

The Bulgarian language has a very rich vocabulary for family relations. The greatest number of words are for aunts and uncles, but there are also many synonyms for these terms in other dialects. Nouns ending in -a/-ia and -o are almost always neuter. The Bulgarian language also has a complex system for moods, including imperfective and renarative moods.

In Bulgaria, marriage is typically monogamous. Couples may have a religious ceremony or civil ceremony. Marriages are monogamous and the spouses are usually the same ethnic group. During the post-socialist period, divorce rates declined. Even today, marriage remains the most common form of matrimony, but it’s no longer considered socially acceptable for couples to marry close relatives.

The Bulgarian language is a descendant of Old Church Slavonic, which is an early southern dialect of Proto-Slavic. It was the language used by Saints Cyril and Methodius to translate Greek liturgical literature. The language gradually became more literate and evolved into the Bulgarian language of the Middle Ages. The language remained in use until the Orthographic Reform in 1945.

The Bulgarians have a long history of making yogurt. They first invented it thousands of years ago. In ancient times, the Bulgarians used their body heat to ferment milk. Many Bulgarians believe that the bacteria responsible for this fermentation process is responsible for their long life. For this reason, Bulgarian yogurt is still heavily used in Bulgarian cooking, including desserts and soups. Regardless of its provenance, it remains one of the best yogurts in the world.
