I Love You in Different Languages

February 7th, 2008 by Bellhop

As Valentines Day grows closer, I love you animationeveryone is planning what to do for their special someone or parents or siblings or friends. Simple gifts from flowers to chocolates to valentines cards cost a little more extra. If you’re on a limited budget but still want to impress your loved ones, why not tell them how much you love them? A heartfelt ‘I love you‘ goes a long way, but you can even impress them more by saying I love you in different languages.

Here is a list of how to say ‘I love you’ in different languages. Click on ‘listen to audio‘ and practice saying the words out loud until you have perfected it.

I love you in English - I love you (listen to audio*)

I love you in Chinese (Mandarin) - Wo ai ni (listen to audio)

I love you in Filipino - Mahal kita (listen to audio)

I love you in French - Je t’aime (listen to audio)

I love you in German - Ich liebe dich (listen to audio)

I love you in Italian - Ti amo (listen to audio)

I love you in Japanese - Daisuki (listen to audio) / Ai shiteiru (listen to audio)

I love you in Korean - Sarang-hae (listen to audio) / Sarang-hamnida (listen to audio)

I love you in Portuguese - Eu te amo (listen to audio)

I love you in Spanish - Te quiero (listen to audio) / Te amo (listen to audio)

If your language is not listed here, how do you say ‘I love you‘ in your language?

*Note on listening to audio: Clicking on ‘listen to audio‘ will ask you whether you want to open or save the file. If you choose ‘open’, it will launch your default music player that can play .amr files. It is usually RealPlayer or QuickTime Player (if it doesn’t work, install the 3gpp plugin). Nokia Multimedia can also play amr files. If you choose ’save’, it will save the audio file to your computer.

    It would be nice if people said they love each other, and they understand one another :)
