![]() ![]() ![]() “Sono pazzamente innamorato di lei.” = “I am madly in love with her.” My favorite Italian phrase to describe this head over heels feeling is, “Ho/Ha perso la testa per…” “I/he,she has lost their mind for…”Īnother expression: “ essere pazzamente innamorati di…” – “to be madly in love with…” Or, you may be talking to your friend about how someone you both know has fallen in love with another. So, the Italian phrase would be, “Tu mi ami?” Leaving out the subject pronoun, we come to, “Mi ami?” for “Do you love me?”Īfter you and your romantic love have announced your love to each other, you may want to describe your feelings to someone else. In Italian, it is not necessary to say, “Do you…?” the way we do in English when asking a question. When asking the question, “Do you love me?” in Italian, the sentence structure is the same as the statement, “You love me,” but with a raised voice at the end to signify that this is a question. To tell someone that you love them in Italian, you must think like an Italian! In my mind, to keep this all straight, I use the English sentence structure, ” It is you who I love!” But, the subject pronoun, is left out as usual, so we come to the simple phrase, “Ti amo.” The direct object pronoun for “you,” is “ti” and tiis placed before the verb “love.” So, “I love you,” is “Io ti amo,” in Italian. In English, we say, “I love you, putting the direct object pronoun “you” after the verb “love.” But, in Italian, the word order is the opposite. This is a bit tricky in Italian, though, since the sentence structure is different from English. #I LOVE YOU IN ITALIAN HOW TO#To tell someone we love them in Italian, we must first learn how to use the verb amare, which means “to love.” But be careful! Because this is the Italian verb of romantic love! In fact, Italians often address their romantic love simply as “amore,” which is the noun that means “love.” Italians also address loved ones as “amore mio,”which means “my love.” Beautiful, isn’t it? The full conjugation of this important verb is given below, with the stressed syllables underlined.įor our focus on conversational Italian, the most important conjugations to remember for the verb amare will be the first and second persons – amo and ami. We can use these two verbs when speaking to our “one true love,” to ask about and declare our feelings of love. ![]()
