Summary/Abstract: This paper deals with the use of the Bulgarian reflexive clitic si as a particle in sentences containing impersonal predicative constructions. The semantic specialization of these constructions is to express an internal (mental, emotional or physical) state or an evaluation. The aim of the paper is to establish how the addition of si modifies the semantics of this type structures.
