The present paper discusses the ways along which the grammaticalisation of the Bulgarian verb of volition was taking place. Besides marking future tenses, the shte ( da ) element is engaged in the paradigm of forms expressing supposition. Corpus evidence reveals one more direction in the evolution of the Bulgarian verb of volition, namely its use as the forming element in constructions of concession, as well as in correlated indefinite pronouns.
