hi from hungary! once my former czech teacher said, bulgarian is the most resembling to old (proto) slavic, is this true? as a person who curious about slavic languages, i'm looking forward to see this video.

Bulgarian is a direct descendant of Old Church Slavonic, which is the liturgical language of much of Slavic Eastern Orthodoxy. That said, it has probably changed the most of any of the Slavic languages, with a simplified grammar and phonemic inventory and extensive borrowing from other languages (especially German, French, and Turkish). I don't think any modern-day Slavic language can lay claim to being the most like proto-Slavic, but the Bulgarians _can_ lay claim to being the first to adopt the Cyrillic alphabet (beware of Russian nationalists claiming that the Russians were first; you don't need to be a nationalist yourself to dispute this claim easily).

I have to add something very important! Old bulgarian and Old church Slavonic are NOT the same thing! Bulgarian is not a descendant of Old church Slavonic, but of Old bulgarian through Middle bulgarian. Old church Slavonic is the russian redactation of Old bulgarian which changed a lot of the sounds in the language.

Interesting that their reflexive pronoun seems to stem from Ipso in Latin and is the same-ish as the one in many western languages like Spanish, "se". I wonder if it existed already in Indo-european as a cognate and spread through all Slavic languages or if they actually borrowed it from, let's say, maybe Romanian.

Nah, it is much simplier than Russian or Polish, Czech and Slovenian. Bulgarian uses kinda mix between Russian and Serbo-Croatian logic with 1 letter, 1 sound.
