I love they too


Explanation:
the verbatim translation is:
"I love they too", which of course is just as meaningless in Norwegian as it is in English.

Nevertheless the fatal detoriation of Norwegian education standards has made this an accepted and common utterance in Norway today, so here we say: "I love they too" when we mean "I love them too" Children's talk? Yes indeed! And its getting progressively worse, by the day"


    Grumpy opposition to a long cultural decline

agree  Lars Finsen: But I rather think this is a machine translation of 'I love you too'.

  -> could be, but wouldn't "you" then be "du" or "dere"?

neutral  MarianneH: No. I have seen "De" in other questions posted here that are even more obviously machine translations.

I too love thee


Explanation:
-could also be a suggestion as the sentence is self is gibberish in Norwegian. But if sentence is originally Old English/Medieval English, then I'd suggest the above.
