意思
Expressing regret or apology
文化背景
Bulgarians are very direct. If they say 'Съжалявам', they usually mean it. If they don't think they are wrong, they won't apologize just to be 'polite'. In the wider Balkan region, hospitality is huge. If you cannot accept an invitation, a sincere 'Съжалявам' is necessary to avoid offending the host. In Bulgarian offices, 'Съжалявам' is used less frequently than in the US. It is reserved for actual errors rather than as a filler word. On Bulgarian social media, 'Съжалявам' is often used in 'public apologies' by influencers, though 'Сори' is more common for casual interactions.
The Comma Rule
Always put a comma before 'че' when saying 'Съжалявам, че...'
Don't Overuse
Bulgarians might find it insincere if you apologize for every little thing. Be genuine.

Add 'Много' before it: 'Много съжалявам.'
No, 'Съжалявам' is a verb in the first person, so it stays the same regardless of the speaker's gender.
