| thank you - Dear Elena, What an excellent compilation! I'm going to test Interlex as well, so far it looks excellent...just what I've been looking for! Thank you for these excellent resources, both for Bulgarian, and other language learners alike! :) Anya | |||

| Yippee Skippee - Thanks much Elena, I am learning more and more words each day.. just have to figure out how to compile them into a conversation and I am all set. But like they say slow and steady wins the race. | |||

| Testing the system - Thanks for your kind words, Anya and Majika! Could you pls help try out whether this autoresponder works properly? When you fill in your name and email, it should send you the info from the post above in txt format. The service providers claim no email address will get into spammers' databases but just in case use some obsolete email address, if possible. Thanks! P.S. It's not working and I removed it; will try again later. E. | |||

| Everything is normal, - BUT the autoresponder isn't working... Will work on this. | |||

| The autosender works! - So, if you want to have the above info in your email box, fill in a name and email address; you will be taken to a page where you just click Next without subbing to a freebie you won't need, and the message arrives in your mail box. At the top there is an ad but guess that is the only nuissance. Hope it is all fixed now! | |

| A lesson needed - Okay... I have decided that I really need to learn how to read the alphabet for Bulgarian before I can to really tackle speaking it. For one of the reasons most of the language lessons I found are in that alphabet. So could you tell me a good site where I could learn it? At least that part I don't need a mic, and I can get started on something new. | |

| Nice program - Teflbg, Hey I like the Interlex program you talked about. I'm sure you have a much larger vocabulary than I do. Is there any way I can get your Bulgarian file(s)? | |
| iubito | Sunday 14th of November 2004 07:14:51 PM |

Is there any way I can get your Bulgarian file(s)?[/quote] Hey tyates. I'm currently working on an Interlex vocabulary document. As soon as I complete it, I will distribute the file to whoever wants it. The first document I am making will contain only 20 phrases and words. I will probably make a series of files, each with it's own theme. | |

| - I would love a copy when you complete that too. I have about 50 words and phrases myself, but I can always use more | |
| Pathfinder05 | Saturday 12th of February 2005 05:47:04 AM |
| - Ok, I'm finished with my very basic Bulgarian vocabulary/phrase list. If you would like it, email me at Pathfinder05@gmail.com | |
