Bulgaria DZI Spanish study guide
Bulgaria DZI Spanish · Work through your exam, one topic at a time.
The DZI in Spanish (ДЗИ по испански език) is the Bulgarian state matriculation examination in Spanish, taken by secondary-school students who need a school-leaving grade and, in many cases, a language score for university admission. It is a general-proficiency exam, not a specialist philology test: it assumes the Spanish taught across the Bulgarian secondary curriculum and rewards a broad, functional command of the language rather than literary erudition. The Bulgaria DZI Spanish study guide has 5 sections and about 1,923 words.
