What you’ll learn

  1. You'll tell a connected story about something that happened to you, with linking words like "⁠отначало⁠", "⁠докато⁠", "⁠оказа се⁠".
  2. You'll pass on someone else's words: what they said, asked or asked you to do.
  3. You'll retell news you only heard from others: "⁠бил⁠", "⁠щял да⁠".
  4. You'll pass on and react to gossip — lightly and with a sense of humour.
  5. You'll retell a short Bulgarian folk tale in your own words — about Clever Peter (Hitar Petar).
