Special attention is paid to grammatic over-telling. Our motivation to dwell on this topic is the fact that “the so-called restatement of the verb action is one of the most characteristic features of the Bulgarian language in relation to other Slavic languages and in relation to almost all Indo-European languages” (Gerdzhikov/Gerdzhikov 1984: 3).otherBulgarianItalianrenarrativelinguistic meanscomparative grammarLINGUISTIC MEANS OF EXPRESSING SECONDARY SPEECH IN MODERN BULGARIAN AND ITALIANArticle
