Summary/Abstract: In the present article, we examine some areas related to verb usage that represent a particular challenge to native speakers of Bulgarian as evidenced by the Writing Portfolios of students enrolled in the 2020/2021 Specialized English Course for Students of Pharmacy at the Medical University “Prof. Dr. ParaskevStoyanov”. We classify these challenges into Tense Challenges, Verb Form Challenges, and Subject-Verb Agreement Challenges. We reach conclusions about differences between English and the students’ native language as a probable rationalization of certain common errors.
