Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. You should, of course know what it is you're making. How do you say "breakfast" in Bulgarian?

Answer: zakuska

Good - we eat "zakuska" in the morning. As we progress through the day, we get on to "obyad" (lunch) and "vecherya" (supper), all the while eating "hrana" (food).

2. We want to start the day with a nice cup of tea - preferably from Bulgarian mountain herbs. How do we say "tea"?

Answer: chai

We pour ourselves some deliciously-smelling "chai" in a cup (chasha). It's always nice if you can manage to pick the herbs (bilki) yourself, so that you can choose the best ones! Most Bulgarians don't use a samovar (a special kind of tea kettle) to brew their tea - it's more common in Russia.

3. Some people like to sweeten their tea with honey, I personally prefer to eat it with some bread and butter. How do you say "honey" in Bulgarian? (The food, not the endearment!)

Answer: med

In Bulgarian we have "med", our neighbours, the Greeks eat "meli". In Germany they call it "honig" and in France - "miel".

4. Onto the food - which of these isn't a type of bread?

Answer: palachinki

If you would like some bread, I can offer you some rye bread (razhen hlyab), a baguette (franzela) or a "pitka", which is a type of round white bread. Or you could have some pancakes (palachinki) for breakfast instead!

5. Bread goes with butter. How would you say "butter" in Bulgaria?

Answer: maslo

A "krava" (cow) gives us "mlyako" (milk) to make "smetana" (cream) and "maslo" (butter) from. Some people would rather eat "margarin" (need I translate that?) on their bread, but it just doesn't taste the same to me!

6. It seems we would require to ask for knives to cut the bread and smear the butter. But which is the Bulgarian word for "knife"?

Answer: nozh

Best option would be the "nozh", of course! While I can imagine one theoretically could cut the bread with scissors (nozhitsa), this could prove impractical. However, you better not try to use a fork (vilitsa) or a spoon (lazhitsa)!

Answer: sirene

"Koza" and "ovtsa" are goat and sheep, respectively. And "usmivka" is a smile - well, you usually have to smile when you say "cheese", right? ;)

8. I could boil you some eggs to go with the cheese sandwich. Or do you rather eat them scrambled? Anyway, before I do that, how do I say "egg" in Bulgarian?

Answer: yaytse

I can fry you the eggs in a pan (tigan). I can also give you some ham (shunka) for your sandwich. As for the chicken (pile) - we should have let it hatch, instead of eating the egg (yaytse)!

9. If you would rather eat something sweet for breakfast, how about some home-made jam? Over here we call it "konfityur". Which of the following would one NOT wish to make jam of?

Answer: meso

Mmmm! Delicious home-cooked jam! We have strawberry (jagodi), fig (smokini) and blueberry (borovinki). We do not, however, make jam out of meat (meso) - that would be a strange thing to do, right?

10. To conclude breakfast on a sweet note, you could eat some fresh fruit as well! I can recommend the local grown ones. Which of these fruits grows in Bulgaria?

Answer: yabalki

Bananas (banani), pineapples (ananasi) and oranges (portokali) are imported, but you can get some juicy ripe apples (yabalki) from the back yard!
