Summary/Abstract: In this article, I examine the issue of the tendencies to adapt the orthographic system of the Church Slavonic language in the Bulgarian literary practice that dates back to the 1830s. Special attention is paid to the changes in the acoustic features of given graphemes, as well as to the differentiated functions of the doublet letters regarding the specificities of the Bulgarian language. Consequently, I argue that the results of such an examination can contribute to reconstructing the spoken variety of the Bulgarian literary language from the period above.
