Following up on a previous thread, do you know how to say I love you in Mandarin ?
You probably already know 我爱你wǒ ài nǐ but it exists many alternatives to express your love in Chinese:
I like you in Chinese is 我喜欢你wǒ xǐhuān nǐ
I like you very much is 我非常喜欢你wǒ fēicháng xǐhuān nǐ
I am interested in you is 我对你感兴趣wǒ duìnǐ gǎnxìngqu
You mean so much to me is 你对我而言如此重要nǐ duì wǒ ér yán rúcǐ zhòngyào
Is there any interesting expression in your native language to express love?
In French we have an expression “tu es la prunelle de mes yeux” which literally means “you are the pupil of my eye”, meaning you are the most precious thing ever to me, but I swear it is very sweet and doesn’t sound weird
The general rule with Brits is the more they insult you, the more they like you
I always wonder with 我喜欢你 (I like you) in Chinese, if it sounds the same as it does in English - because in English ‘I like you’ is almost exclusively used for romantic situations. For Mandarin though I’m not sure how intense it sounds to say ‘我喜欢你’ to someone
I know “520” and “521” sounds similar to 我爱你. But some might argue that it’s a reach because the number combination sounds like it was spoken by a drunk Beijinger with a mouthful of marbles
And the same festival happens in the Chinese culture on the 7th day of the 7th month of the lunar calendar: the Qixi Festival, which this year happens on August 10th
Speak of saying ‘I love you’ in Chinese, recently it was 七夕节 (QiXi Jie; QiXi Festival)
But don’t worry if you missed out on this one, there are actually several Valentine’s Days in China, so there’ll be plenty of chances to practice saying I love you in Mandarin
I’m doing homework on a Flexi Classes material. There is a sentence saying:
这个世界上只有一个你，所以每个人都不 普通
zhè ge shì jiè shang zhǐ yǒu yí ge nǐ suǒ yǐ měi ge rén dōu bù pǔ tōng
Do we use this to talk to our partner or do we say this to friends?
