Reading your comments, guys, is fun, the history of the languages spoken and written on the Balkans is really interesting. True, the Greek alphabet had been used as a source for the Bulgarian one but there are a lot of letters that are unique and even there are sounds that don't exist in the Greek. Here are some bright examples:

Б - in Latin, that's B. Greeks use the combination of M&P = MP to write down a similar sound.
Щ - in Latin, that would be how "SHT" would be pronounced.
Ю - in Latin, that's exactly like "YOU" is pronounced :)

The most funny part is Bulgarian and Greek languages are totally different and there are hardly any words matching :) One interesting fact, the word to say "Yes" in Greek is exactly the one Bulgarians use to say "No" - "Ne".

The Balkans are one interesting, and the most of the time, a boiling place :)))

Even more funny is the fact that I did not mention the Bulgarian language in my comment at all, since I know almost nothing about it 😁

Well, the post was about the Bulgarian alphabet, based on Cyrillic. It's my mistake to call it "Cyrillic alphabet in focus" 😃 Anyways.

Hehehe :) Now you do :P
I know a lot of expats, from American, English, Norwegian, Italian origin who love to learn languages and what I hear from them is Bulgarian is one of the hardest languages they had to learn. Well, I don't know about that. What about German? :DDD Or the languages spoken in the Far East? :)

I don't think German is so difficult, but for me, even the Greek language is incomprehensible, despite the origin of the Cyrillic alphabet. I know that the Bulgarian language is difficult for foreigners, but every time I am in Greece, I think: damn it, I don't understand anything here.
I don't even know what I'm buying when I shop in the store, I just go by the pictures. I can't even read the road signs, not even the names of the towns. I've always thought I could do well in many places, but this is where I get confused. It's very complicated for me. 🤔

I suppose it needs patience and persistence, as every other tongue :)
