We are attempting to learn Bulgarian. We are starting small with greetings. Bulgaria uses the Cryllic alphabet, and we are not sure if we'll ever be able to read or write it, but we will try to learn to speak it using the phonetic words.
First, to say hello, you would say "zdrasti". If you were speaking to just one person you would say "zdravei". These are both informal. If you were speaking formally, you could use greetings depending on the time of day. Good morning = dobro utro. Good day = dobyr den. Good evening = dobyr vecher. We are mostly going to be learning the informal to speak with "Luke", but we may need some formal when we go to Bulgaria to meet him.
Zdravei, az se kaz vam Kate. Priyatno mi e da se zapoznaem. Hi, my name is Kate. It's nice to meet you. I can't wait to say these words to "Luke"!
When saying goodbye informally, you can say "do skoro", which means "see you later". You can also say ciao which is one of the words Bulgaria has adopted as their own. If you are speaking formally, "goodbye" is "dovijdane".
A little bit of Bulgarian at a time is easy for us so far. Hopefully we can retain and build our vocabulary of relevant words for being in Bulgaria and for speaking with "Luke".
