имаш ли братя или сестри

Do you have siblings?

意思

Asking about family members.

🌍

文化背景

Bulgarians use 'бате' for an older brother and 'кака' for an older sister. These terms are used even by adults and show respect and affection. Family name days (Imenden) are often celebrated as much as birthdays, and siblings are expected to visit each other without a formal invitation. The concept of 'God-siblings' (children of one's godparents) is historically significant, though less so in modern urban areas. It is common for siblings to stay in the parental home until marriage, leading to very close lifelong relationships.

常见问题

12 个问题

In very informal speech, yes, but it's much better to use 'ли' to be clear.

Just say 'Имаш ли сестри?'.

No, 'братя' only means brothers. You must say 'братя или сестри' to mean siblings.

Say 'Единствено дете съм'.

Not at all! It's a very common and friendly question.

Имате ли братя или сестри?

Не, нямам.

Yes, but 'или' is more common in the question form.

It adds a sense of 'having for oneself' and makes the tone warmer.

Usually after a few minutes of conversation, not as the very first sentence.

No, Bulgarian lacks a direct equivalent to the English 'siblings'.

You would still use 'братя' or 'сестри', or specify 'полубрат' / 'полусестра'.
