- Portuguese has a specific word, saudade, which describes the bittersweet longing for someone you love, often appearing in messages where one is mandando amor to someone far away.
- In Brazil, many people use the phrase fica com Deus ('stay with God') as a way to end a message, which often carries the same emotional weight and warmth as 'sending love'.
- In many Portuguese-speaking cultures, instead of 'sending love', a person might say they are 'sending many kisses' (mandando muitos beijos) to express the same level of warmth and affection.
