Ally you star. What a great site. I have a Bulgarian language course, tapes, books etc at home and am trying slowly to learn the lingo. It comes out funny but what the hell - I'm sure that its appreciated that we try. Last year somebody asked me what day I was flying home and I very confidently said "siraney" which was met with the most hysterical laughted - Instead of saying "surbotah" which is Saturday, I'd said I was leaving on white Cheese " See what I mean - funny but great fun. ...

re: Useful Bulgarian words/phrases
Great phrases. Think I will learn a few basics - yes/no, thanks, good evening (won't be up too early and if i am..it wont be good
), another beer please 
.Anyone know how to say:
Escuse me squire, have you got any ketchup?
re: Useful Bulgarian words/phrases
In the white hart, what you will need to say is this "Escuse me squire, have you got any ketchup?" LOLAlly
re: Useful Bulgarian words/phrases
but whats Bulgarian for " no i dont want to buy a ####ing bell, will you please #### off and stop following me everywhere i go "
re: Useful Bulgarian words/phrases
PMSL @ Carl, I remember now LOLOLOL re: Useful Bulgarian words/phrases
No, I don't want to buy anything! = Ne, ne iskam da kupuwam nishto!
#### off! = Razkarai se!
Stop following me everywhere I go! = Prestani da me presledwash!
Carl,
I know you are not actually willing to learn these phrases, but it may be fun reading! You will definately impress any Bulgarian if you can master any of these, but note that the second one is particularly rude, as in English I believe.

Or alternatively you could say - ne sme krava! - We are not cows. I managed to suprise a bell seller with that one last year.Rie

must admit we bought a small one in the end just to get rid of the bloke selling them, thought it was getting a bit much when he climbed up to our fifth floor balcony
