Putting on clothes.
خلفية ثقافية
The 'Baba Marta' tradition involves 'dressing' the whole country in red and white. It's a symbol of health and spring. There is a strong cultural norm to dress up when going to the city center (на центъра), even for a simple walk. Grandmothers often warn that if you don't dress warmly, you will 'catch the draft' (ще те духне течението). In traditional Bulgarian weddings, the 'dressing of the bride' (обличане на булката) is a ritual involving folk songs.
The 'Se' Rule
If you start a sentence with 'Аз' (I), 'се' goes before the verb. If you don't use 'Аз', 'се' goes after the verb.
Shoes are different!
Never say 'обличам обувки'. Always use 'обувам обувки'.

الأسئلة الشائعة
10 أسئلةNo. You should say 'Обличам яке' (without 'се') or 'Обличам се' (generally). If you want to specify the item while being reflexive, say 'Слагам си якето'.
It is neutral. It is perfectly fine to use in any context, from home to a business meeting.
'Обличам се' is present tense (I am dressing), while 'облякох се' is past tense (I dressed).
Just type 'Обличам се'. It's short and clear.
No, Bulgarian verbs show the person through the ending. 'Обличам се' already means 'I am dressing'.
Say 'Обличам детето'. Do not use 'се'.
Yes, 'Стягам се' or 'Оправям се' are often used informally.
Use 'Обличай се топло'.
Never. It is a clitic and needs a 'host' word before it.
Mostly yes. Russian uses 'одеваться' (odevat'sya), which also has a reflexive suffix.
