I'm having a little fight with the Imperative in Bulgarian and based on today's lesson I'd say it's winning. The point of contention seems to be the negative imperative. Oh and some of the crazy irregulars. Today though, it was this exchange with my teacher that really hit home the fact that I'm<em> never</em> going to learn Bulgarian.

Wait. I take that back. I <em>will</em> learn Bulgarian.  It's just that my knowledge is just a little scattered and haphazard currently.
<ul>
	<li>Me: What is "зает"?</li>
	<li>Teacher: You know that.</li>
</ul>
I make a wild guess. <em>It's wrong</em>. Why? Because I really don't know and there's not currently enough context for me to figure it out.
<ul>
	<li>Teacher, after a long sigh: Busy.</li>
	<li>Me: <em>Wait</em>. What's rabbit?</li>
</ul>
Now my notes from class read:
<ul>
	<li>зает = busy</li>
	<li>заек = rabbit</li>
</ul>
It seems like there's a great children's book in the making there.
