Did you know?
- In modern digital romance, instead of writing the full phrase, one might use the number '520' to say 'I love you', but to add 'forever', one would often append '1314', which sounds like 'for a lifetime'.
- If you want to express 'forever' in a way that sounds like a vow of marriage, you might use 白头偕老, which literally means 'to grow old together until your hair turns white'.
- The character 爱 (love) contains the radical for 'heart' (心) in its traditional form, suggesting that eternal love is fundamentally a matter of the heart.
