“Love You” in Spanish
Expressing your love to someone is easy with the verb ‘amar’. It’s a regular verb, so conjugating it is a breeze.
So when you want to say ‘I love you‘ in Spanish, Just use the phrase ‘te amo‘ – simple and sweet!
You can also express love using the verb ‘querer,’ although it’s less strong than ‘amar.’ It’s a way to express love to your friends and family. Be careful with its conjugation, as this one is irregular.
Example: Te quiero, mi amigo.
And if you want to say ‘I’m in love,’ we use the phrase ‘estar enamorado/a.’
