Whether taking their first steps in the language, or mastering the intricacies of the Bulgarian verb system, they can use the Activator as their road-map to success. WHO IS THE ACTIVATOR DESIGNED FOR This book summarizes authors' practical experience in teaching Bulgarian to foreigners, especially regarding the Bulgarian verb system. This is a practical guide to complex verb forms for English-speaking foreigners interested in mastering the Bulgarian language. A wide range of learners at different levels can benefit from this book: the beginners can look up verb conjugations in the present, for example, while the more advanced learners can check more complex structures, such as conditional and future in the past. Authors hope that their fellow teachers of Bulgarian as a foreign language will also find this book useful as they tried to respond to a need - one that they themselves have felt numerous times - of a practical verb reference guide. The Activator is the first book of this type of conjugated Bulgarian verbs. HOW IS THE ACTIVATOR ORGANIZED The Activator begins with a short theoretical part, where authors provide a one-page model of conju-gated verbs. Then follows an Overview of Bulgarian verb system, wherein authors have purposefully avoided technical jargon. They also offer a table of Approximate English equivalents to verb forms in Bulgarian. The main part of the Activator is an alphabetical presentation of 212 verbs, conjugated in 7 tenses and 3 moods. Each verb is presented on a separate page. Authors have also provided a Bulgarian-English dictionary of 55 cognate verbs - these are verbs that have the same base and meaning as their English counterparts. Then users will find an Index of 106 more verbs, formed out of verbs presented in the Activator, using various prefixes. Each verb is followed by a reference to a page where you can find a conju-gated verb serving as a model. In the Activator users can also find an English-Bulgarian Dictionary of all conjugated verbs, which will help them to check the meaning and the forms of the verb they are looking for.
