The language is Bulgarian, and I was referring to the re-narrative mood. Although I did overstate it a bit, the re-narrative mood can also be used to express extreme doubt in what you are saying or that you have obtained the information very indirectly. But I would say that most of the time it is used to express sarcasm at least up to some extent.
(That and the very basic greetings are the only Bulgarian I retain - I will have to go and investigate the "re-narrative" in my copious free time. Thanks.)
