💡

Gender Check

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

The 'Who/What' Test

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

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.
