Summary/Abstract: The paper presents a program of research into the category of definite-ness/indefiniteness as part of the project of Functional Grammar of the Balkan Sprachbund. Bulgari-an, with its well-organized system of articles and fairly “stable mechanism of Bulgarian article usage” (Asenova 2002 (1989): 129), has been accepted as the base language for the study of the functions of definiteness markers in the Balkan languages and for the setup of a matrix establishing Balkan functional parallels within this grammatical category.
