Summary/Abstract: This paper aims to present some of the types of reported utterances containing concluzive forms in Bulgarian when the concluzive forms are found in indirect speech. Those uses are very particular and due to reasons indicated in the work they assume a different role, hence new meaning. This work makes a point to the reasons for the concluzive forms to be used to indicate natural (non-subjective) way of reporting speech about past events in the described above contexts in Bulgarian.
