=== The Basics of Bulgarian Numbers ===


Let's begin by learning the numbers from 0 to 10 in Bulgarian. These numbers are fundamental and will serve as building blocks for the larger numbers we will explore later. Here is a table with the Bulgarian numbers, their pronunciation, and English translations:
Starting with numbers is an exciting way to kick off your Bulgarian language journey! Here’s a breakdown of how to count in Bulgarian from 0 to 100. Below, you will find a comprehensive list of numbers with their pronunciations and English translations.

== Numbers 11-20 ==
| 11 || единадесет (edinadeset) || eleven


In Bulgarian, numbers from 11 to 19 have their own unique words. However, the numbers 20, 30, 40, etc., follow a pattern that will make it easier for you to count in larger increments. Let's start with the numbers from 11 to 19:
|-

| 11 || единадесет (edinadeset) || eleven
|-
| 12 || дванадесет (dvanadeset) || twelve

|-
|-
| 19 || деветнадесет (devetnadeset) || nineteen
| 19 || деветнадесет (devetnadeset) || nineteen
|}


Notice that the word for "ten" (десет) is added as a suffix to the numbers from 1 to 9 to form the numbers from 11 to 19. This pattern will continue as we move forward. Let's explore the numbers from 20 to 100 next.
|-
 
| 20 || двадесет (dvadeset) || twenty
 
|-
 
| 21 || двадесет и едно (dvadeset i edno) || twenty-one
 
|-
 
| 22 || двадесет и две (dvadeset i dve) || twenty-two
 
|-
 
| 23 || двадесет и три (dvadeset i tri) || twenty-three
 
|-
 
| 24 || двадесет и четири (dvadeset i chetiri) || twenty-four
 
|-
 
| 25 || двадесет и пет (dvadeset i pet) || twenty-five
 
|-
 
| 26 || двадесет и шест (dvadeset i shest) || twenty-six
 
|-
 
| 27 || двадесет и седем (dvadeset i sedem) || twenty-seven


== Numbers 20-100 ==
|-


In Bulgarian, the numbers from 20 to 100 follow a consistent pattern. The pattern is similar to the way we formed the numbers from 11 to 19. Take a look at the following table:
| 28 || двадесет и осем (dvadeset i osem) || twenty-eight

|-
| 100 || сто (sto) || one hundred
|}


To form the numbers from 21 to 99, we combine the tens digit (20, 30, 40, etc.) with the units digit (1 to 9). For example, to say "21" in Bulgarian, we say "двадесет и едно" (dvadeset i edno), combining "двадесет" (dvadeset) for twenty and "едно" (edno) for one. The same pattern applies to all the numbers from 21 to 99.
| 79 || седемдесет и девет (sedemdeset i devet) || seventy-nine
 
|-


When we reach one hundred (сто), the pattern changes slightly. Instead of combining two words, we use a different word altogether. For example, "100" in Bulgarian is "сто" (sto).
| 80 || осемдесет (osemdeset) || eighty


Now that we have covered the numbers from 0 to 100, let's move on to some cultural insights related to numbers in Bulgarian.
|-


== Cultural Insights ==
| 81 || осемдесет и едно (osemdeset i edno) || eighty-one


Numbers play an important role in Bulgarian culture, just like in any other culture. Here are a few interesting facts and insights about numbers in Bulgarian:
|-


1. Superstitions: Bulgarians, like people from many other cultures, have certain superstitions associated with numbers. For example, the number 13 is considered unlucky, similar to many other Western cultures. It is best to avoid using this number in formal or important contexts.
| 82 || осемдесет и две (osemdeset i dve) || eighty-two


2. Even and Odd: In Bulgarian, the words for even (четен, cheten) and odd (нечетен, necheten) are used not only in mathematics but also in everyday conversation. You might hear someone say, "Това е нечетно число" (Tova e necheto chislo), which means "This is an odd number."
|-


3. Phone Numbers: Bulgarian phone numbers are typically written in a format like this: +359 2 123 4567. The "+359" is the country code for Bulgaria, followed by the area code "2" for Sofia, the capital city. The remaining digits make up the individual phone number. Remember to dial the country code when calling Bulgaria from abroad.
| 83 || осемдесет и три (osemdeset i tri) || eighty-three


4. Prices and Bargaining: When shopping or negotiating prices in Bulgaria, you will often encounter numbers. It's important to know the numbers and understand the currency (лев, lev). Being able to count and understand prices will help you navigate Bulgarian markets and make informed decisions.

Great job! You have successfully completed the exercises. Now, let's summarize what we have learned in this lesson.
=== Tips for Pronunciation ===
 
Pronunciation can be tricky for beginners, especially when learning a new alphabet. Here are a few pointers to help you pronounce Bulgarian numbers correctly:
 
* '''Stress''': Bulgarian words often have stress on the last syllable. For example, in “двадесет” (dvadeset), the stress is on the second syllable.
 
* '''Vowel Sounds''': Pay attention to the vowel sounds, as they can differ significantly from English. For instance, “е” in “едно” is pronounced like the “e” in “met.”
 
* '''Practice''': Practice saying the numbers out loud. You can use flashcards or number charts to help reinforce your memory.
 
=== Understanding Number Patterns ===
 
One of the best ways to master numbers in Bulgarian is to recognize patterns. For example:
 
* '''Tens''': The numbers 20, 30, 40, etc. all follow a pattern. For example, '''двадесет''' (dvadeset) for twenty, '''тридесет''' (trideset) for thirty, and so forth.
 
* '''Combining Numbers''': For numbers between the tens, you simply add “и” (i), meaning “and.” For example: '''двадесет и три''' (dvadeset i tri) means twenty-three.

Tips for Pronunciation[edit | edit source]

Pronunciation can be tricky for beginners, especially when learning a new alphabet. Here are a few pointers to help you pronounce Bulgarian numbers correctly:

  • Stress: Bulgarian words often have stress on the last syllable. For example, in “двадесет” (dvadeset), the stress is on the second syllable.
  • Vowel Sounds: Pay attention to the vowel sounds, as they can differ significantly from English. For instance, “е” in “едно” is pronounced like the “e” in “met.”
  • Practice: Practice saying the numbers out loud. You can use flashcards or number charts to help reinforce your memory.

Understanding Number Patterns[edit | edit source]

One of the best ways to master numbers in Bulgarian is to recognize patterns. For example:

  • Tens: The numbers 20, 30, 40, etc. all follow a pattern. For example, двадесет (dvadeset) for twenty, тридесет (trideset) for thirty, and so forth.
  • Combining Numbers: For numbers between the tens, you simply add “и” (i), meaning “and.” For example: двадесет и три (dvadeset i tri) means twenty-three.
