Sorry, you've got it wrong Bacon. Molya is please. Kak ste is How are you. Beer is bira, more than one (beers) is biri.

Isn't it nod to say no and shake your head to say yes, or have I got confused with somewhere else....?

jocrad, That sounds right. It's the opposite to our conventions.

Jim, About the link you posted

http://www.gorustic.com/eesurvival_bulgarian.htm

The phonetic spelling for 'How are you' is spelt as 'Kok si'

Listening to my basic bulgarian mp3s and from other websites it sounds more like 'Kak si' rather than 'kok si'

Also 'please' sounds like 'mol-ya' rather than 'molla'
