Lesson Transcript

Hi everyone! I’m Alisha.
Welcome to Conversational Phrases!
We’ve found that the best way to learn a language is to speak it from day one! And the best way to start speaking is to learn phrases that you’ll use in real conversations.
In this lesson, you’ll learn conversational phrases to answer the question, "What are you doing during the holiday?" After watching this video, you’ll be able to talk about your holiday plans.
Now, let’s take a look at some conversational phrases!
Listen to the dialogue.
Какво ще правиш за Деня на съединението? (Kakvo shte pravish za Denya na saedineniеto?)
Планирам да ходя на плаж. (Planiram da hodya na plazh.)
Once more with the English translation.
Какво ще правиш за Деня на съединението? (Kakvo shte pravish za Denya na saedineniеto?)
“What are you doing for the Unification day?”
Планирам да ходя на плаж. (Planiram da hodya na plazh.)
“I'm planning to go to the beach.”
First of all you'll need to learn how to say “What are you doing for the Unification day?”
That's:
Какво ще правиш за Деня на съединението? (Kakvo shte pravish za Denya na saedineniеto?)
This day commemorates the day when Bulgaria's southeastern territories became part of the country in 1885.
Listen to it again:
Какво ще правиш за Деня на съединението?, Какво ще правиш за Деня на съединението? (Kakvo shte pravish za Denya na saedineniеto?, Kakvo shte pravish za Denya na saedineniеto?)
What are you doing for the Unification day?
Now, how do you answer this question?
The pattern is:
Планирам да [plan]. (Planiram da [plan].)
This Bulgarian sentence translates as "Planning to [plan]." But it means "I’m planning to [plan]."
For example:
“I'm planning to go to the beach.”
Планирам да ходя на плаж., Планирам да ходя на плаж. (Planiram da hodya na plazh., Planiram da hodya na plazh.)
