Probably, there is no such person who would not like to hear these words from his lover or beloved. And even if you speak different languages, but even if your soulmate tells you “Ndinokuda!” (shona) or "mon tone yaratyshko" (Udmurt), and not the already familiar "I love you", "I love you", "Je t" aime "or" Ich liebe dich ", according to the intonation and sparkle of the eyes, you still understand the main thing.

On the eve of Valentine's Day, the employees decided to conduct a small study and find out how people confess their love to each other in various parts of our planet. Let's be honest, the results we got surprised us with something, and even amused us with something. We will not delve into traditions and rituals, we will only touch directly on words.
Due to the grammatical and stylistic features of some languages, the phrase "I love you" will sound different, depending on who says it: a man or a woman. For example, in Japanese, a man would say "Aishiteru yo" and a woman would say "Aishiteru wa". In Arabic, the gender of the addressee already matters, that is, when referring to a man, you will say “uhibukya”, and to a woman - “uhibuki”. But everything is even more complicated in Hebrew, because both the gender of the speaker and the gender of the addressee matter here: a man will say “ani oev otah” to a woman, a woman will say “ani oev otkha” to a man, a man to a man “ani oev otkha”, and a woman to a woman “ani oevet otah "(as they say, full of options).
In some languages, the colloquial and formal versions of this phrase will also differ. For example, in Bulgarian, “az te obicham” is a literal, but very official version, so the shorter version “obicham te” is used in colloquial speech. The same thing happens in Arabic, Greek, Persian, Portuguese and many other languages.

For Brazilians, especially on Valentine's Day, the form tequero [te keru] is more characteristic; if the Brazilian himself is asked to transcribe a word with a final o, then he will write [o], but in fact it is not quite this sound, although it does not go into [y], as in Portuguese tequeromuito [te keru muitu] - I love you very much Options: quero-te [quero-tee] teamo [ti amu], amo-te [amu-ti] - this is more “pompous”, in this way, most often, they love their homeland, wife, of course, a child; after all, the main meaning of the previous word is “I want” (but, as in Spanish, “I want” in this context does not sound as vulgar as in Russian, this is quite a decent form now); usually the pronoun eu (I) is not used with a personal verb. If you do not omit it, you get a logical stress on this pronoun: not someone, but I love. |
