Abstract
The understanding of the category of person as a grammatical phenomenon
is implicit for linguists. The transition from the logical concept to the grammatical
category of person is a process that is still debated in linguistics. The article aims
to review some of the most significant works, dealing with the grammaticalization
of the meaning of personality in the Bulgarian language, particularly the ones
originating in the Bulgarian context. The author’s objective is to offer a personal
perspective on the evolution of the grammaticalization process.
