معنی
A friend known for a long time.
زمینه فرهنگی
Old friends often call each other 'брат' (brother) or 'сестра' (sister) even if they aren't related, showing the depth of the 'стар приятел' bond. In the Balkans, an 'old friend' is someone you can visit without an invitation. Hospitality is mandatory for a 'star priyatel'. During the socialist period, 'другар' (comrade) was the official term, but 'стар приятел' remained the emotional, private term for true bonds. Young Bulgarians use 'стар приятел' less frequently than 'близък приятел' (close friend), but 'стар' still carries more weight regarding history.
Gender Matters
Always remember to say 'стара приятелка' for women. It's a very common mistake for English speakers.
Don't say 'Дърт'
Never use 'дърт приятел'. 'Дърт' is a rude/slang way to say 'old' and it sounds insulting.
