Italian language schools in Lugano

Did yesterday's post about Italian love phases pique your interest? The Italian language belongs to the romance family, a beautiful language and most closely related to it’s original roots of Latin. There is something romantic and fun to speaking to your love in another language. Here are ten more Italian love phrases to choose from.


1. Ti amo - I love you. This is the version only used for a husband/wife, fiancee.
2. Ti voglio bene - I love you. This is the version used for friends, family, boyfriend and girlfriends. Used more commonly on a day to day basis to your love.
3. Ti voglio tanto bene - I love you very much!
4. Sono innamorata/innamorato di te - I am in love with you.
5. Voglio baciarti - I want to kiss you
6. Sei la mia vita - You are my life
7. Ti adoro - I adore you
8. Ho un debole per te - I have a soft spot for you
9. Amore mio - My love
10. Baciami! - Kiss me!
