معنی
Spending time with someone.
زمینه فرهنگی
The 'Long Coffee' culture. Bulgarians can sit for hours with one espresso. The point isn't the caffeine; it's the 'компания'. It is considered rude to leave a guest alone in a room. Someone must always 'make them company'. Historically, 'седянка' (sitting together) was the way young people met. They 'made company' while working. In big cities like Sofia, 'making company' is often used as a low-stakes way to network or date.
The Magic Pronoun
Always use the short dative pronouns (ми, ти, му). It makes you sound 10x more native than using 'за мен' or 'с мен'.
Don't 'Guard' Company
Never say 'пазя компания'. It sounds like you are standing guard over a group of people like a soldier.
