First Composition in Bulgarian

Аз изкам да напиша раэкаэ на Български език за първи път, но за съжаление не зная много думи.

Проблемът е че в работата ми, аз говоря само английски и нямам време да науча нови думи.

Когато казвам нещо на български, колегите ми ме отговарят на английски защото те предпочитат този език.

По през същото време, когато уча български, колегите ми учат английски.

Някои от колегите ми са от Израел, и не изкат да научат нито един нов чужд език.

Аз мисля че ако работата ми е в малко село, далеч от София, и ако хората там знаят да говорят само български, аз ще мога да говоря български език.

    Google saves the day. I would translate for me, but not let me paste the result into Blogger. So I typed it out. Is this what you meant.

    I can write izkam ?????? of Bulgarian language for the first time, but unfortunately I do not know many words.

    The problem is that in my work, I only speak English and have no time to learn new words.

    When I say something in Bulgarian, I meet my colleagues in English because they prefer this language.

    As in the same time learn Bulgarian, my colleages learn English.

    Some of my colleagues are from Israel and izkat to learn any new language.

    I think that if my work is is a small village, far from Sofia, and if people there know how to speak only Bulgarian, I can not talk to Bulgarian.

    On the behalf of Bulgarsko-Angliski Dictionary publishers everywhere, I commend Google for its noble attempt at translation. Indeed, the automatically-generated version is close to my original intentions! Only my Bulgarian teacher would know for sure.

The “Pogacha”

Image
Pogacha is a traditional, round bread which is used in many Bulgarian ceremonies and celebrations. This was also the name for the celebration that we were invited to by one of my colleagues, Luca, and his wife Iva, in honor of the birth of their son, Nicola. Although the customs surrounding the birth of a baby had their origins many centuries ago, and most of them have not survived, there are still some customs which have made it to modern times and are generally followed by all women after giving birth. When a baby is born, the baby is not taken out of the house for a period of 40 days. During this time, only close family members are allowed to visit and to see the baby. In ancient times, this was due to the fact that a woman was considered “unclean” and as a result, she and her baby were at great risk from evil spirits. Today, it is more of a feeling of protecting the baby from germs and keeping him safe. At the end of the 40 days, there is a celebration, which only the women family...

Top 15 Favorite Bulgarian Places

Image
At a distance of one month, it's sometimes hard to believe that we spent two wonderful years living in Bulgaria. We look back with fond memories at the many places we visited, the many people we met, and the many things we learned about Bulgaria, its culture and history. This started as a Top Ten list, but there were too many places to list, so it became a Top 15 list, and still, some of the colorful destinations we visited are not included. The list is presented in alphabetical order. Balchik . On the Black Sea coast, this town was the summer home of Queen Marie of Romania . We enjoyed walking around the botanical gardens, seeing the old style houses and the simple palace that captured the heart of the Romanian queen. Belogradchik . Belogradchik is a town in northwestern Bulgaria and also the name of a fortress and nature reserve of bizarrely shaped sandstone, limestone and other rock formations. The Belogradchik Rocks were Bulgaria's candidate in the campaign for N...

The Chinese Market

Image
On Sunday we went with our friends Sima and Shlomo to the northern neighborhoods of Sofia to an outdoor shopping bazaar known as the Chinese Market. Stokov Bazaar, or Ilientsi, is a huge area of stalls selling everything from kitchen appliances, toys, clothing, and car parts, and at very cheap prices. Many of the shopkeepers were indeed Chinese, and it was interesting to see so many Orientals in one place, speaking Bulgarian. We managed to buy a few things we needed but it was hard to fully enjoy the experience as it was freezing cold. Either the cold, or the after-Christmas mood kept the crowds away, because we heard that the bazaar attracts many Sofia shoppers.
