Well, if you need to say I Love You to someone, things must be serious. Lets get on right to it.
There are many ways of showing affection in Spanish, but, surprisingly, there are two ways to say “I love you”: Te amo and Te quiero. It is highly important to be aware of the slight difference between them so as to convey your feelings with the rights words
Learning the difference between these two phrases and when is correct to use them takes time and a little memorization. Although there are only two ways of saying I love you in Spanish, you need practice so as to know which one is the most appropriate to use. Nobody wants to show a deep love on a first date or tell their beloved one they love them like a friend.
If it is a matter of dating, marriage, friendship, casual love relationships or relationships in general; you’ll find the correct way to show your affection in Spanish without hurting anyone’s feelings.
The first thing you need to know is that these expressions are not interchangeable. This means, you use one of them to show affection to your family/friends and the other one, to your loved one. The degree of familiarity and fondness is a crucial factor when using Te amo and Te quiero.
In Spanish culture, people tend to say Te amo- the spanish version of I love you- to the person they are dating or married. If you are committed to someone or in a serious relationship, saying Te amo is a way of showing a deep affection. Te amo is reserved to show romantic love. It means you are deeply in love with someone. However, Te quiero (it literally means I want you), is widely used to show affection to your parents, siblings, pets, friends or significant people. If you are in a love relationship which is not that serious, you may choose the phrase Te quiero. Te quiero is reserved to show affection and fondness. It doesn’t imply you are in love with someone.
Te amo is a strong and passionate phrase that can’t be told to anyone. You should be quite sure about your feelings before saying Te amo to someone. There are many variants or phrases to express how you feel. 1) BÉSAME MUCHO Song on YouTube 2) No te alejes de mí por By Vicentico YouTube 3) La cosa más bella - Ramazzotti YouTube 4) MANÁ Rayando El Son - Mana YouTube 5) Te Amo YouTube
Well, if you are not sure, an easier expression to say your feelings can be ‘I Like You So Much’ ie ‘ me gustas Tanto’. This can be used to check the overall mood, feelings and if all is good, go right in to say I Love You.
Most used Spanish word to express love or someone you love is Mi Amor. Use Mi Amor to call your loved one, someone you really really love.
Te amo is a phrase you don’t say every day to anyone nor can it be taken lightly. In contrast to the english language where people tend to say I love chocolates, I love my dog, I love the beach, I love sunny days; in Spanish it is a phrase you choose to reflect a deep affection to a loved person. Translating English words into Spanish won't provide the cultural context needed to get your message across. English phrases and expressions- such as I love you- are translated in different ways depending on the context of real conversations. Learning Spanish is an adventure you should embark upon to avoid making mistakes or get embarrassed when declaring your love to your spanish- speaking special person.
After a date night, if you wanna invite your date inside may be for a coffee or something, you can probably use ‘Quiero tomar un cafe’.
Spanish-speaking cultures are widely known for their warmth, fondness and the way they express their feelings. For that reason, it is not surprising the Spanish language has a variety of phrases to show different levels of affection. This language is rich in vocabulary to accurately express an array of sentiments.
How do you express your feelings to a family member such as parents or siblings? What about your friends or someone you like? In Spanish, the phrase Te amo doesn’t fit all situations. If you want to let your family or friends know you love them, then saying Te quiero is the most appropriate phrase in Spanish.
In a new romantic relationship, you can’t say Te quiero. It is an inappropriate way of showing your feelings if you haven't reached the Te amo level. Saying Te quiero means you are making clear that you are interested in the other person. Te quiero is a more casual way of saying I love you.
Saying Te quiero is also a good way to explain to someone you just want to be friends or you are not ready to get involved in a romantic relationship yet. If you're falling in love, instead, saying Te quiero is a much stronger phrase than simply saying I like you. You are showing your feelings to the other person but it isn’t as strong as Te amo.
How do you express your feelings to someone you’ve been dating for a long period of time and you are falling in love? After the first stage of a relationship, you may feel ready to go forward and show your deepest feelings to the other person. Saying Te amo is a declaration of love. It means you should reserve it to someone you really care for and is your partner or spouse.
