This, as far as I know, is not "to know" in Bulgarian, which is зная. Might be an inflected form, though. Anyone who knows better? --Hekaheka (talk) 22:28, 9 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Or maybe intended as root for citation purposes? Chuck Entz (talk) 23:26, 9 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
Tbot created зная (znaja), a user (Francis Tyers) then renamed the page to зна (zna), and another user then added back the content to зная (znaja). I suspect Francis Tyers was just plain wrong, but I'm not sure we have anyone who's competent enough in Bulgarian to speedy delete this. Mglovesfun (talk) 00:10, 11 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
The reason given was a move to infinitive. However:
  • in Bulgarian, the lemma form is not the infinitive, it's the 1st person singular of present
  • the infinitive is almost never used in modern Bulgarian, except in some phrases
  • anyway, the infinitive form is the same as the 3rd person singular of the aorist and, for this verb, it happens to be зная.
  • зна is not an inflected form of this verb.
Conclusion: it was a mistake. I'll delete it. Lmaltier (talk) 07:56, 11 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
This page was blanked, then tagged (rfc), by Ntilev (a native Bulgarian speaker), but these actions were reverted. I don't understand why. Lmaltier (talk) 08:24, 11 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

No such verb; The right form is зная.

So, what kind of cleanup does the entry need then? What should the text say? What is wrong with the formatting? --EncycloPetey 20:21, 9 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
