सामान्य गलतियाँ
Using an adjective ('good') instead of an adverb ('well') to describe a verb. Adverbs in Bulgarian usually end in -o or are irregular like 'добре'.
Confusing 'from' (от) with 'towards' (към). 'От' is the starting point, 'към' is the destination.
While 'много' can follow a verb, when used for emphasis of desire, it often precedes the verb in natural speech.
