Well you got the love you bit right, but not the word I.
Should read:I love you:我愛你
Chinese Pinyin: wo3 ai4 ni3
whats with the 3 and 4 and 3 and trhe #'s after each word?
it's the pernounciation thing, because every word with the same romaji or whatever you call that. has four pernounciations, so those numbers indicate which pernounciation it is , so when you say it, others won't mistaken it for another word
"wo ye ai ni"
is how you say i luv you too in chinese

^^ I'm guessing the tonality or pitch of the phoneme, and are you going to tell a girl that you love her!? That's pretty adventerous! ;)

They're tones. 3 is a dipping, down then up tone. 4 is a sharply falling tone.
我 爱 你
wo ai ni
I love you
probably,"予" is I in wu or cantanese
I speak cantonese.Originally Posted by justin9213
"予" doesn't mean "I"
"予" , as I know , has a same pronunciation with "汝"
and "汝" is a old fanshion chinese which mean "you".
It just like Shakespeare words in English. It is a very old fanshion Chinese that people no longer use in daily life.

One of the most adventurous things left for us is to go to bed. For no one can lay a hand on our dreams....

Besides, I also want to hear it in other languages! (...then would it be off topic??)

By the way,my Chinese first name is Kanji word for LOVE with the Chinese character FEMALE/GIRL to the left of it.My pop was quite creative naming me,I haven't met any Chinese with this " unique " name to this day.
