Summary/Abstract: This paper analyzes typical cases in contemporary communication where the imperfect active participle is replaced by the aorist active participle in the conclusive, renarrative, and dubitative forms of the present and the imperfect past tenses. These replacements are observed in spoken and in written speech of native speakers in both formal and informal communicative situations. The study has a linguodidactological focus, and it argues that the analysis of the non-standard replacement of the imperfect active participle with the aorist active participle in teaching Bulgarian as a foreign/second language at levels C1 and C2 can significantly contribute to enhancing linguistic competence as an integral part of learners’ communicative competence.
