Practice Reporting a Lost Item in Bułgarski
Losing your wallet, phone, or passport abroad is bad enough; explaining it in Bułgarski adds a second layer of stress. This scenario walks through reporting a lost item — at a hotel, on transport, or to police. You'll practise describing the item ('a black leather wallet, about this big'), saying when and where you last saw it, and asking what happens next. The vocabulary covers items, materials, colours, and the times-and-places grammar you need to give a useful description.
