Summary/Abstract: A formal description of the set of grammatical means in Bulgarian as a component of its normative grammar should form the basis for adequate distinction and diagnosis of normative problems. It means that linguistic facts should be described precisely and exhaustively and without any presupposed normative interpretation. Accomplishment of such an objective may be feasible if the description is treated as the task of building the universal classification of forms in the Bulgarian language understood as the classification in which each of the classifying features finds its fulfillment through one of its values in each of the objects classified. The study is an attempt to determine the rules of building the classification of Bulgarian lexical items relevant to their formal morphological description as a transition from dichotomous to universal classification.
