The Bulgarian conditional uses the particle 'би' with the l-participle to express hypothetical, polite, or non-factual states.

  • Use 'би' + l-participle for hypothetical actions: 'Аз бих отишъл' (I would go).
  • Use 'би' for polite requests: 'Бихте ли ми помогнали?' (Would you help me?).
  • Combine with past tense for counterfactuals: 'Ако знаех, бих дошъл' (If I knew, I would have come).
Subject + би + l-participle
