Bulgarian is a softly spoken Slavic language, written in Cyrillic (which makes reading signs
interesting!).
We've gathered together some of the key phrases you might find helpful as you work your way
around Bulgaria. We think it's always important to try your hand, even if only to say thank
you for a meal or drink.
Most Bulgarians under 35 speak good English which you might find embarrassing as you struggle
with a few simple Bulgarian phrases.
