see below Explanation: "Te quiero" has a broader use than "te amo". You could say "te quiero" to a friend or member of your family. The use of "te amo", in turn, is more restricted to a significant other. So, according to who the person you're saying "I love you" to is, you can choose either "te quiero" or "te amo". |

See below. Explanation: Yo creo que tanto la persona que hace la pregunta, como algunos que exageran.... te idolatro= I love you; claro, están exagerando un poco. Por que no dedicar un foro tan serio que nos ayuda a aprender y a mejorar a ser eso... un foro de profesionales que respetan y cuidan su profesión. Porque para hacer una pregunta cómo qué significa I love you en español... Bien sabemos que te quiero y te amo... será lo mismo, a menos que se esté traduciendo una obra literaria. Nuestro idioma no es una broma. Es un idioma rico y precioso que debe respetarse. Al menos eso creo yo, porque amo mi idioma y respeto mi cultura. Lo anterior en vista de personas que usan este foro por juego ó burla. Esta no es una columna de clasificados, es un apoyo para traductores que desean apoyar con sus conocimientos, ó que como yo, desean aprender un poco más. Buena suerte con su traducción. Amar ó querer. Lo más importante es repetar. En consecuencia, amar ó querer, es igual. Es lo tierno y hermoso que existe dentro de un corazón que respeta, admira y ama ó quiere. No es esto lo mismo? Suerte. |
