It is suggested that systematic investigations of this kind could throw some light on the mechanisms of language contact and language change (including diachrony). Such studies can also contribute to the theory of contrastive analysis of Bulgarian with other languages. Finally, certain inferences could be made concerning language teaching. %B Съпоставително езикознание / Сопоставительное языкознание / Contrastive linguistics %V 12 %P 12–18 %G bul %N 2
