میں بھی آپ سے پیار کرتا ہوں
Main bhi aap se pyar karta hoon
میں بھی آپ سے پیار کرتا ہوں (Main bhi aap se pyar karta hoon) is the Urdu phrase for 'I love you too'.
This phrase is used as a response to tell someone that you feel the same love for them as they do for you.
What does it mean word for word?
The phrase literally translates to 'I also from you love do'.
Which one should you use?
While the default form uses aap se, replacing it with tum se makes the expression more informal or intimate. Additionally, you can use the word mohabbat instead of pyar for a more formal tone.
How does it change in a sentence?
The verb ending changes based on the gender of the speaker. A female speaker should change the verb ending from 'karta hoon' to 'karti hoon'. For example, a woman would say میں بھی آپ سے پیار کرتی ہوں.
How do you pronounce it?
Main bhi aap se pyar karta hoon
Did you know?
- While pyar is common, poets and songwriters often use ishq to describe a more intense, passionate, or divine love.
- In many South Asian cultures, expressing 'love' to an elder or a stranger using the informal tum instead of aap can be seen as a sign of disrespect rather than just intimacy.
- If you were to use the word mohabbat instead of pyar, you are using a word with heavy Arabic and Persian influences, which often sounds more poetic and literary in Urdu.
