Summary/Abstract: The object of research of this study are the nouns expressing similarity with stems of Greek origin and Bulgarian suffix. The material has been excerpted from various Bulgarian etymo-logical dictionaries, as well as from research works devoted to Greek loanwords in Bulgarian. With regard to methodology, the paper is based on a complex method combining the theoretical syn-chronic formulations of the Czech linguist M. Dokulil and the diachronic ones of the etymological-historical method. Hybrid formations are put to a word-building analysis and are classified by word-formative types.
