FAQ
Common Questions
Is this Bulgarian course really free?
Yes, completely free. All 60 daily lessons, audio playback, quizzes and mock exams are available at no cost, with no account required.
How long does each lesson take?
Each day is designed for around 60 minutes of focused study — reading, listening to audio, a short writing task and an auto-marked quiz. You can go faster or slower as you need.
What level will I reach after 60 days?
The lessons cover beginner topics through B1 study. Progress depends on your starting point, revision and speaking practice; completing 60 lessons does not certify a CEFR level. Days 15, 35 and 60 are course checkpoints.
What Bulgarian qualifications can I take after this course?
BG60Day offers independent study and course practice, not a qualification. For certification, check the current STBFL or ECL requirements with the provider. Day 35 includes citizenship-format practice; use the Institute of Education’s official sample tests too. Practise listening, speaking and writing separately before booking an exam.
Do I need any previous knowledge of Bulgarian?
No. Day 1 starts with the Cyrillic alphabet from scratch. You need no prior knowledge of Bulgarian or any Slavic language.
Does the audio work on mobile?
Yes. Every phrase plays a pre-recorded Bulgarian audio clip that works on any phone or computer. If a clip cannot load, your device's built-in Bulgarian text-to-speech is used as a fallback (on Android via the Google Text-to-Speech engine, on iPhone via Settings > Accessibility > Spoken Content).
Can I track my progress?
Yes. Each day has a quiz with a 'Mark Complete' button. Your progress is saved in your browser's local storage — no account needed. The homepage shows how many of the 60 days you have completed.
