Abstract

The Bulgarian verbal system still preserves the old outline. The trend that operates formerly on the slavic systems for which the perfect became a general simple past seems also operated in Bulgarian, but driving to different results. An innovation was the witnessed value associate to past tenses, in front to the neuter value of non-past. The system has been enriched with other innovations based on perfect values: secondary perfects, distanced forms, conclusive mood and doubtful forms.

This study is devoted to met the representation of these forms in formulae of time relationships «E rel R rel S»; it would be appropiate for considering them «tenses» because show a relation with the deictic centre, whether direct or indirect and more complex.
