Ok this is really a strange question but i want to know something about emotions. Can we really put it in words. e.g can we really explain what love is or can we just feel it? a friend told me that language is limited and that not everything can be put in words. So i want to ask you. What is love? can you really answer this question?

well, i guess that you have heard about that saying - "love is everywhere" which means exactly that- that love is not just a feeling- love is even something more. well, we can't reject that it is maybe the most powerful feeling, but it can be also shown not only with some "feeling" because feeling are caused by some actions, by some words or something else that blazed the love. well, there are so many words that can share our emotions( ni this case love) and the first and most used one is "I loove you" what else can better share your love as an emotion than this three( in my language two) words? I guess nothing, but only if the words are spoken with truly feelings and not just so, just for fun. there are also some other words like " I want you" or some others like that, which are actually more connected with some activities which are a part of loving well, there is also one word( it is actually a phrase) which shows very good our feeling to our partner and it is exactly "will you marry me?". guess that there is no woman who can reject these words and won't make her the most happiest woma on Earth. so now you see that language can really express the feeling and I guess that this is its main function :) BTW poetry is the language of emotions
