Keywords: evidentiality; indicative; renarrative; conclusive; dubitative; learning Bulgarian as a foreign language

Summary/Abstract: The main goal of the present work is to argue that in the teaching of Bulgarian as a foreign language, not only the indicative and the renarrative, but also the other two indirect evidentials – the conclusive and the dubitative – should be included. This is especially true for levels C1 and C2. In fulfillment of this goal, the meanings, forms and main uses of the four evidentials in the modern Bulgarian language are examined: indicative, conclusive, renarrative and dubitative. The expressed opinion is that the grammaticalization of evidentiality in the modern Bulgarian language is not a complete process due to two main reasons: the presence of three types of forms for the negative future tenses and the permeability of all composed evidential forms.
