'I love you' (70)

Well, it's February and eventhough my cat thread was a failure, I was wondering: How do you write 'I love you' in your language?

English: I love you
Malay: Saya cintakan awak

Swedish: Jag älskar dig
German: Ich liebe dich.

Hah, awesome. Googling for pages about this yields good stuff:
http://www.links2love.com/i_love_you_languages.htm
http://www.columbia.edu/~sss31/rainbow/i-love-you.html

Both those links botched up the Swedish line, though...
Also: 2GET.

Chinese
我愛你 (pronounced: lay low moe)

Spanish (1): Te amo
Spanish (2): Te quiero

(1) it means more love than (2), but (2) it all right too.

Te : TE sound like TEN whithout letter "N"

AMO: A + MO. Where, A sound like A from APPLE. Only "A" without "PPLE". And MO, it sound like MO from MOTO. Only pronounced "MO" without "TO".

Then: TE(N) A(PPLE) MO(TO) = TE AMO

TE AMO = I love you in spanish

Japanese: 愛してる or Aishiteru
But this is really hardcore, usually people just say 大好き(daisuki).
French: Je t'aime

Spanish has 2 ways of saying I love you

Te amo
100% I love you. Direct and powerful

Te quiero
50% I love you + Cuteness. People say that just to be cute or kind, although not necessarily in terms of absolute love. For example, friends can say that to each other; male to female, female to female, male to male.
