The 3rd Person Test

If you can add 'they say' to the sentence, you should probably drop the 'е' or 'са'.

🎯

The 'E' Test

If you want to sound like a native storyteller, remove the 'е' (is) from the 3rd person past tense. It immediately adds a layer of 'once upon a time' or 'I heard that'.

The 'Нима' Secret

If you want to sound like a native intellectual, use 'нима' to start a sentence when you disagree with someone's logic. It's more elegant than saying 'I don't believe you'.

🎯

The 'Synonym Swap'

When writing, look for verbs ending in '-ирам' (often Latin-based) and see if there is a native Bulgarian literary equivalent. It sounds more 'authentic'.

सामान्य प्रश्न (6)

It's the grammatical signal that you are not an eyewitness. If you keep it, you are taking personal responsibility for the truth of the statement.
Only if you don't remember them (e.g., when you were a baby or if you were sleepwalking). Otherwise, it sounds like you're having an out-of-body experience!
'Той е дошъл' (Perfect) implies you see the evidence now (e.g., his shoes are at the door). 'Той дошъл' (Renarrative) means someone told you he came, but you didn't see him or the evidence yourself.
It can be. In formal settings or with strangers, avoid it. With friends, it's a sign of intimacy or mild frustration. It's similar to 'man' or 'dude' in English but more versatile.
Technically no. 'Нима' almost always implies that the speaker has a preconceived opinion or is expressing disbelief. For a neutral question, use 'дали' or just the particle 'ли'.
Look at the context and intonation. If the answer is obvious to everyone, it's rhetorical. If the speaker's voice drops at the end, it's likely rhetorical.
