The 'Who/What' Test

If the noun is doing the action, use -ащ. If the action is done to the noun, use -н.

💡

Gender Check

Always look at the noun before 'какъвто'. If it's 'кола' (fem), you need 'каквато'.

Review Summary

  • [Subject] + [L-Participle] (No 'e/ca' in 3rd person)
  • Verb Stem + -ейки / -айки
  • Noun + [Preposition] + който/която/което/които

よくある間違い

In the renarrative mood, the 3rd person singular/plural auxiliary (e/ca) must be dropped. Including it makes it Present Perfect.

Wrong: Той е бил там. (meaning 'He was apparently there')
正解: Той бил там.

Using a perfective verb (дойде) with 'докато' for background duration is incorrect. Use imperfective (идваше).

Wrong: Докато той дойде, аз четях.
正解: Докато той идваше, аз четях.

Bulgarian prefers placing the preposition before the relative pronoun (с когото) rather than at the end of the clause.

Wrong: Човекът, който говорих с него.
正解: Човекът, с когото говорих.

Next Steps

よくある質問 (6)

To distinguish between process and result.
No, it's grammatically incorrect.
Most verbs can form participles, but stative verbs like съм (to be) or имам (to have) rarely use the -ащ form in modern Bulgarian.
It depends on the verb group. Group 1 and 2 verbs usually take -ещ or -ящ, while Group 3 verbs (ending in -а/-я) take -ащ.
It changes to agree with the noun it describes in gender and number.
No, you must match the noun. Use 'каквато' for feminine nouns.
