Noun

нога́ (nogáf

    Synonym: (regular term) крак (krak)

Usage notes

edit

In modern Bulgarian, the singular of нога́ (nogá) is mostly obsolete. Only the dual нозе́ (nozé) is being used, specifically in the sense feet (the immovable part of the lower limb). The sense leg is nowadays conveyed by крак (krak) (originally: spanning, striding limb).
