       @aety actuallythe yers were indeed vowels in archaic slavic languages. it's not sure exactly *which* vowels they were, but probably some extra-short closed ones. this is why the soft yer became palatalization - it likely was an /i/ or /j/ - and the hard yer disambiguates some words and in russian was at the end of most words until the 1917 (i think?) spelling reform (similarly to french which had a lot of words ending with a schwa but elided them over the course of a couple hundred years)so bulgarian is actually fairly conservative in that regard
