Abstract
We describe a type-theoretical resource grammar for Bulgarian in the Grammatical Framework (GF). The grammar allows parsing and generation of natural language text to and from abstract syntax representation. The representation is common for all languages in the resource library in GF which makes it possible to translate between any of the two supported languages and to have multilingual text authoring. We developed formalized grammar rules for Bulgarian and we show how the language specifics fit into this multilingual setting.
