Bulgaria uses the Cyrilic script which is also used in Russia. I was afarid that I would be unable to pick up Cyrilic in Bulgaria but it is surprisingly easy.
C The C is pronounced S like the C in police. (Also palace and practice.)
Then you can pick up other letters as you walk aroung the capital of Bulgaria, Sofia, or look at photos on the internet.
For example, I stopped outside a coffee shop and read the signs. The Cyrilic word was ko.e. The third letter was obviously pronounced f. It was a cicle with a vertical line through the middle.
Now when I see a word containing that sign I just visualise the word k o f e.
