The article deals with the controversial issue of relations between voice and transitivity. It is claimed that the traditional approach which maintains the existence of direct and obligatory connection between transitivity and passivizability contradicts the language reality. Proposition is made to replace the traditional binary opposition of transitive/intransitive verbs with a scale of transitivity.

This article discusses some of the basic theoretic and practical problems concerning the functional equivalence in compound sentences with a subordinate temporal clause, between two essential oppositions characterising respectively the French and the Bulgarian temporal system, namely the opposition between simple and complex verbal tenses in French, versus the Bulgarian opposition between imperfective and perfective morphologic aspect, whose typical manifestation is the perfective imperfect. It is pointed out that according to this equivalence, in subordinate temporal clauses, complex French tenses should be very often translated by simple Bulgarian tenses of perfective aspect.

The article examines perception of Japanese word-accent in Bulgarian learners of Japanese. The main experiment of the study was carried using synthesized sound of nonsense words, in addition to which a questionnaire was used in order to find out, among other things, what exactly sound parameters the subjects used as cues during the experiment. The subjects are Bulgarians, studying Japanese in Bulgaria. The main findings may be summarized as follows: 1) Pitch remains the only reliable cue for correct recognition of Japanese word-accent 2) The pattern with a pitch-fall after the first mora is the most easily recognized, no matter what the accept-perception abilities of the subject are. 3) The pattern with no pitch-fall is the most easily recognized in subjects with high overall perception abilities. 4) The so-called ‘‘special mora” seems to distort the subjects’ judgements, being generally perceived as accented. This may be due to a certain acoustic resemblance between syllables containing a “special mora” and stressed syllables in Bulgarian.
