Sample of Bulgarian
Bulgarian was the first Slavic language to be written: it start to appear in writing during the 9th century in the Glagolitic alphabet, which was gradually replaced by an early version of the Cyrillic alphabet over the following centuries.
Bulgarian is closely related to Macedonian. Several features of the Bulgarian and Macedonian languages make them unique among the Slavic languages. They both have a definite article that comes after the noun. They both have lost the case system from Common Slavic, the language from which they descended, and prepositions have replaced cases as a way of showing the grammatical relationships between parts of a sentence. Modern Bulgarian was based essentially on the Eastern dialects of the language, but its pronunciation is in many respects a compromise between East and West Bulgarian.
