Document Summary
(cid:2113) (literally: like) and (cid:2113) (literally: like a lot) are great examples of this. Although, in english, i like you doesn"t quite match up to that otherthree-word phrase, when said with sincerity both (cid:2113)(cid:2139)(cid:2125) and (cid:2113)(cid:2139)(cid:2125) can be just as powerful as i love you. Speaking of love though, you"ll probably be needing the next word on the list . Using this vocabulary word, there are two more formal ways that you can say love: These are both ways to literally say i love you, however they"re used far less often than (cid:2113) (cid:2139)(cid:2125) or (cid:2113)(cid:2139)(cid:2125). If you"re still unconvinced about using (cid:2113)(cid:2139)(cid:2125) you could say: I like/love everything about you: old school vs. modern confessions of love. Let"s be honest, what may seem really romantic in a movie or your favorite drama might be a little cheesy in real life.
