As you're a native speaker I'm sure you know perfectly well how to pronounce this, but didn't you write the numbers of the tones wrong? It should be "wo3 ai4 ni3". 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

In Tagalog we say "Mahal kita"
In cebuano we say "Gipalangga tikaw" Amazing how we say I love you in different languages.. love seems a complicated thing to express- but it's still sweet! 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

A quick clarification for Slovak:
Ľúbim ťa = I love you Milujem ťa = Something like, 'I love you so incredibly much that you can't even imagine.' In other words, much stronger than 'Ľúbim ťa' and only used romantically. Between family and friends Slovaks sometimes use the phrase 'Mám ťa rád' or 'Mám ťa ráda', if the speaker is a female, to express love. This literally means 'I like you'. However, one will not likely find a Slovak saying 'Milujem ťa' to their mother, lest they be accused of incest ;) -Robert 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

я тебя люблю! /ia tibia liubliu/ Руский
обичам те! /obicham te/ Български je t'aime! /jtem/ ( ...moi non plus! ) Français [edit] Sorry, used "q" for "ia" in the Russian transcription; That's because q looks like я and sometimes I use it as a replacement for the cyr letter.
Similarly, in French "Je t'aime bien" is "I like you", not "I love you"; I suppose bene = bien, and I have no idea what's voglio ^_^. Edited by Sennin on 09 June 2010 at 6:51pm 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

It is something I can pronounce but I cannot put it in pinyin. In fact I learn Pinyin at secondary school! Blame the screw up education of Singapore! 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Could German native speakers explain something to me: when I was in Germany, I sometimes heard the expression "Ich hab' dich lieb" instead of "Ich liebe dich". That was said by lovers, not friends. So what's the difference? Does it signify less attachement/ not so deep feelings?

I'm not a native but, from my understanding 'ich habe dich lieb' has less weight attached to it, less intensity, compared to 'ich liebe dich'. 1 person has voted this message useful |
