Summary/Abstract: This article aims to introduce and to make a contrastive analysis of some functionally identical adverbial constructions from the Russian and the Bulgarian languages. In the following the question will be discussed, to what extent there are similarities (or differences) between the Russian and the Bulgarian representation of concessive clauses as a kind of subordinate clause. The main object of the analysis are concessive clause structures, that are introduced by different Russian and Bulgarian generalized concessive conjunctions. Their syntactic as well as their semantic structure will be examined by using Russian and Bulgarian examples. The basic idea of this analysis is formed by the assertion, that different conjunctions express not only different constructions but also certain semantic nuances.
