Hi Sandra I believe whenever mechta used a 'q', she actually meant 'я' or 'ya' for instance" to work-da rabotq should be: to work - da rabotya - да работя |

Hi Sandra
I believe whenever mechta used a 'q', she actually meant 'я' or 'ya'
for instance"
to work-da rabotq
should be: to work - da rabotya - да работя If that's the case the is there any point in this young lady doing these lessons surely to be able to give lessons you must first know the language, I not being critical but this can be very mis leading to many of us who don't know any better. Thank you both for pointing this out. |

Just to avoid any confusion ... the Bulgarian 'c' is actually an 's' sound, therefore: Greece - Гърция - is pronounced gurtsiyaTurkey - Турция - is pronounced turtsiyaetc. |
