Person
Person is typically feature of personal and possessive pronouns, and of verbs. On verbs it is in fact an agreement feature that marks the person of the verb’s subject. Person marked on verbs makes it unnecessary to always add a personal pronoun as subject and thus subjects are sometimes dropped (pro-drop languages).
Bulgarian is a pro-drop language, as other Slavic languages.
1
: first person
In singular, the first person refers just to the speaker / author. In plural, it must include the speaker and one or more additional persons.
Examples
- аз / az “I”
- идвам / idvam “I am coming”
2
: second person
In singular, the second person refers to the addressee of the utterance / text. In plural, it may mean several addressees and optionally some third persons too.
Examples
- ти / ti “you”
- идваш / idvash “You are coming”
3
: third person
The third person refers to one or more persons that are neither speakers nor addressees.
Examples
- той, тя, то / toy, tya, to “he, she, it”
- идва / idva “He/she/it is coming”
