Ways to say it
| Hindi | Romanization | Note |
|---|---|---|
| मैं तुमसे प्यार करती हूँ | main tumse pyaar karti hoon | said by a woman, to a boy |
| मैं तुमसे प्यार करता हूँ | main tumse pyaar karta hoon | said by a man |
| मुझे तुमसे प्यार है | mujhe tumse pyaar hai | any speaker, natural |
The words तुमसे (tumse) mean "to you" in a close, friendly way. For a much older person or a formal case, आपसे (aapse) replaces it.
How does it change in a sentence?
The ending of the verb follows the gender of the speaker, not the person addressed. A woman says करती हूँ (karti hoon) and a man says करता हूँ (karta hoon), so the same sentence does not change when you speak to a boy or a girl.
What mistakes should you avoid?
Mixing the endings, for example a girl saying करता हूँ (karta hoon), sounds wrong to Hindi speakers.
Did you know?
- Hindi also has the word इश्क़ (ishq) for deep, passionate love, which is common in poetry and songs.
