well i know that in italian that the word love is amore. In spanish I love you is te amo. My ex used to say "tu tiene mi corazon" meaning you have my heart

That sounds really nice. I like the way that sounds. Too bad I don't like your ex.

Well, it's not my language but I took French for several years. In French to say I love you is je t'aime. But you must say the person's name first.

I don't remember much French and can't really understand people who speak it too fast, but I loved learning it. I'm hoping to speak it as well as I speak English one day. I have to really think about it when I want to say something in French. Once my online classes calm down, I want to get a CD that will teach me how to speak it better.

hi petiksmode. In Poland we say "Kocham Cie". I don't make use of this words often, because I prefer to show feelings more than talking about it:). Have a nice day, jazgottt.

hehe so I am a weird woman LOL. I think that saying "I love you" once a year is enough;). My boyfriend is also not so talkative when it comes to these words, so we understand each other. Take care, jazgottt.

In Finland it is "Rakastan Sinua". Love is Rakkaus. A famous local singer has even written a hit song "Rakkaus on ruma" which translates and means that "Rakkaus(=love in Finnish) is an ugly word" Nonetheless I like. It might sound more romantic in other languages, but nothing makes as nervous to say or happier to hear than the Rakastan Sinua.
