I love you in Turkish!


Seni seviyorum! ( I love you).
Actually; Turkish has inverted structure. sentence structure doesnt resemble European Languages.
Ben seni seviyorum. ( I you love)
Seni seviyorum. ( I love you) you is singular.
Sizi seviyorum. ( I love you all) you is plural.

Ben- I
Sen-you
O- he,she, it ( no gender in third person, all same)
Biz-we
siz- you
onlar-they
to love: sev-mek
love: sev(verb), sevgi(noun)

I like that freeturk says it's a simple language. that's what I like about Hindi/Urdu. Their rules are not maleable like with English. Every rule it seems has an "exception" to it.

Even French had a few grammar and such rules that had exceptions.

What a refreshing thought that Turkish is exception-free!!

Whats the difference between "Ben seni seviyorum" and "seni seviyorum", both of which is roughly translated as "I love you", without the pronoun "Ben"?
Its the gist about Turkish and many other languages like the Latin ones and Arabic, for instance. We have the "secret pronoun" case here. You can easily infer from the verb's conjugation who is performing the action. In the verb "seviyorum", last two letters "-um" is a suffix for the first person "I" and without the need of using "Ben" you can infer that its "me" who loves you. Well, its like "Te amo" instead of "Yo Te amo" in Spanish, where you simply omit "Yo".
But when do we use "Ben" then? It makes slight differences
Seni seviyorum
I love you
Ben Seni Seviyorum
I love you (you thought I didnt but I do)
or I, you know, love you :P
or I,(maybe you wont believe but), love you

but as you see, "seni seviyorum" is the most straight and simple way of your expressing emotions.

Also what if we phrase it like
"Seni Ben Seviyorum"
"I" love you, or
Its me who loves you (not somebody else)

"Turkish is like chess, with several simple rules, you have infinite number of moves"
