    There are many. People when studying this region overlook it. The problem is Bulgaria, the name Bulgaria and its language is absolutely incorrect for the people. Old Bulgarian and its people, Bulgars, were a steppe/East Asian tribe who spoke a language akin to Mongols, Koreans, Japanese etc....

    The language that the modern nation state of Bulgaria speaks ‘Bulgarian’ is a dialect of Serbian, there are many not so long ago who classed it as such. There are also other factors for Macedonians being classed as Bulgars from politics, religion and even social status (Austria-Hungary, Ottomans, Vatican, English, French etc...) The confusion went even deeper, Serbian travellers who travelled through Greece were called Bulgars (boulgaroi, bolgaroi) Vulgar class or sub-humans dirty ones.

    I'm sure someone here will appreciate this, a Lerin-Kostur dialect dictionary
