Summary/Abstract: Subject of this study is the rivalry between parataxis and hypotaxis in Bulgarian colloquial speech. In Bulgarian standard language the coordinating and subordinating relations in sentence are clearly defined. In oral communication however the paratactic and hipotactic connections are often violated. That infringement of the syntactic structure of the utterance is performed both by mixing conjunctions in form and meaning, and by eliding one of connecting elements.
