Dave's BG-related web pages
http://sa.dir.bg - easy URL to remember, not bad, gives examples
Online Dual - possibly better, more thorough, but I can never remember the URL
Koralsoft - one of the first online dictionaries I used... was OK for a while then it went "commercial" with overlaid adverts and enforced delays - totally unusable. It seems to have sorted itself out now. It shows pronunciation stress too :-) The others don't.
BG музика
Bulgarvoice - free music (needs Real Media player)
Textove - BG song lyrics (very useful when used with Bulgarvoice to read what they are singing)
карти
BG maps (cyrillic kbd needed)
More BG maps(cyrillic kbd needed)
BG Weather
Digisys pretty good
BG penfriends
Shared Talk - pretty good
My Language Exchange - 6 bucks a month to contact native speakers. Do it once and make the most of it !
BG grammar
At Allexperts Pretty good (and dense) summary, but u need to set your browser's character encoding to "Unicode" to see the cyrillic.
BG language email group
Yahoo/Egroups Bulgarian Learner group - you sign up and receive copies of postings via email. Some BG natives and mostly advanced learners... some problems with cyrillic encoding of emails. Variable volume of posts. A bit cliquey sometimes.
(Hint - if you are going to click one of these links, r-click and open in a new tab or window)

Another song (още една песен)
мисля че тази е една традиционна Македонски песен

Palm Software
If you have a Palm device (I have an old Treo 600) there is some Bulgarian language software available for it from LingvoSoft

I bought the dictionary on the basis that an electronic речник would be easier to carry around… Continue

BG Song
and here are the lyrics (from textove.com)
Нея ще целуваш,
а ще виждаш всъщност мен.
Ледна тишина, хладна тишина.
После до прозореца ще пушиш отегчен,
в свойта самота, в свойта самота.
Сега я виждаш и привидно си щастлив,
пак лъжа и пак лъжа, и пак, и пак
(пак лъжа)
В главата звучи един въпрос страхлив,
докога, докога?
Докога?
Нея ще целуваш,
а ще виждаш всъщност мен.
Ледна тишина, хладна тишина.
После до прозореца ще пушиш отегчен,
в свойта самота, в свой… Continue

Bulgarian Language books - 11
This is probably the most popular Bulgarian dictionary/речник and it comes in various sizes - this is the "large" version - 100,000 words and weighs a couple of kilos. It is written for Bulgarians not English folk - the introduction and all explanations are BG, and there is a list of irregular ENGLISH verbs at the back (no irr… Continue

This was the first Bulgarian book I ever bought. Better than nothing, but not by much. Its biggest advantage is its large type (another way of saying that there isn't much content). I remember being very frustrated by all the words that weren't in it. In a word - simple. 8500 words with 1 or 2 words for each, and no further contex… Continue

Because we always get caught out by the use of idioms I thought this would be useful. It is a fascinating read, and includes rude words :-) It is interesting comparing the EN idiom with the direct BG translation - e.g. "to draw a blank" = "удрям на камък" = to hit a stone. It does have its irritations though - the keywords are t… Continue

Another Ebay bargain - it comes with 2 CDs too. However I never even started with this one. Because the whole book is written in the cyrillic handwriting font AND it irritatingly transliterates its vocabulary (badly). I very nearly binned it. But it has one valuable redeeming feature. At the back it has 30 pages of FULL conjug… Continue

Well I keep moaning about the lack of a reference book - this is one. The sort the Bulgarians use. And it is a little baffling. It is supposed to show you the irregular verbs, plurals of nouns and suchlike and the 2nd-person (ти) verb endings where u have to know or guess. Regular verbs and nouns, have nothing at all against them… Continue

I was given this last summer by a BG friend, and started reading it in the sun. Its pretty good, although I have scribbled on it where I found errors and unclear bits, so it aint flawless. Yes I know I should have worked all the way through it - I got as far as page 164 before Anne and I decided to pursue the Intensive BG book… Continue

Don't even think about it until you have thoroughly mastered part 1.
Backwards. It will only depress you as you realise how much there is to learn about this crazy language. Masterclass stuff.

Hi Friend:
I hope your day is going well for you. I ran across some cool software that I think you'll be interested in and can help you hide folders and files on your computer. This can come in real handy when you have sensitive files that you want to keep private from prying eyes. Use Hide Those Folders software to keep private files from being viewed by children, employers, employees, and even hackers!
Hide Those Folders will hide your sensitive files and folders so that they can't be seen or accessed. Files stay hidden even if you turn on "View Hidden Files" Even links in your recent documents menu won't be able to find your hidden files or hidden folders.
The best part is that Hide Those Folders offers a FREE "Try Before You Buy" trial.
