Examples

“Една́ дево́йка ме попи́та: - Къде́ е у́лица „Раки́та“? и аз нали́ съм услужли́в, мака́р и до́ста срамежли́в, събра́х, събра́х кура́ж и ка́зах: - Да! Ведна́га, ведна́га, ведна́га ще ви заведа́!”

A girl once asked me, full of grace: "Where's Rakita Street, is this place?" And though I’m shy, and quite reserved, I gathered courage and then observed: "Yes! Of course, I’ll take you there, I’ll lead the way without a care!"
