How to say I LOVE YOU & THANK YOU in 27 Languages - Local Guides Edition

Hi fellow Local Guides -

We just published a very interesting video in our YouTube channel that showcases many of the Local Guides that attended the most recent Local Guides Connect Live in San Francisco last October.

We couldn’t pass up the opportunity to whip up a useful video like this one to take advantage of the summit where we rubbed shoulders with some of the best and most passionate Local Guides from around the world. We asked all of them to say these common phrases in their own native language:

I Love You

Thank You

We hope to spread more word about the program and to share how excited we are to be part of it as we get to know tons of things we didn’t know about other cultures and we get to forge life-long friendships

Alternately, this is the direct link: https://youtu.be/Z2FpHSciClo

We’d appreciate if you can also SHARE this to your fellow LGs and other friends who don’t know about the program yet so we can make our community even bigger!

Cheers and have a great weekend ahead!

Hi @EricMartinezPH,

Thanks for sharing with us.

Really great for the community to learn this precious phrase in different languages.

In Vietnamese, we have two versions - Anh yêu em and Em yêu anh. For thank you - we usually say cám ơn!

Just as a note, probably due to the post seemed as a promotion and out filter may have picked it up, as they run 24/7 and they can be a little harsh at times.

Your post is now available on Connect. I would like to apologize for your post being marked as spam.

Hi @EricMartinezPH ,

This was a really entertaining post. I jumped on it just to point out a slight difference in translating “I love you” in Italian. For close friends or member of family you use “Ti voglio bene”, for your partner or the person that you are in love with “Ti amo”.

Hi @EricMartinezPH ,

I saw the video you have shared. It’s amazing! I really liked your idea and it was great hearing so many languages.

I didn’t see someone saying “I love you” and “Thank you” in Hebrew, so I will write it for you in Hebrew and with English letters, so you will be able to read it.

I love you - Ani Ohev Otah - אני אוהב אותך

Thank you - Toda - תודה

Keep on good posts like this and have fun :slight_smile:

Happy weekend!

That’s a really interesting post. I will contribute with the words in Portuguese.

Thank you - Obrigado / Obrigada (depending on the gender of the person). =)

Thank you @EricMartinezPH for the video you shared, it is so cool!

I saw that the Albanian language was not part of this video, so I am adding them now:

I love you- Të dua

Thank you- Faleminderit

@EricMartinezPH thank you for video!

There isn’t Greek either, so there you have it:

I love you: Sagapo - Σ’αγαπώ

Thank you: Efharisto - Eυχαριστώ

Hi @EricMartinezPH ,

Great video, thanks for sharing!

I really enjoyed this, and of course I will pitch in with the Danish version. They are very similar to the Swedish ones, just spelled slightly different.

For thank you, we say Tak, and for I love you, we say Jeg elsker dig!

Really great idea @EricMartinezPH ! Thank you for sharing.

I am from Bulgaria but I am speaking Japanese, so I will write it for you in Bulgarian and Japanese, and with English letters, so you will be able to read it.

Japanese:

Thank you: **ありがとうございます。**Arigato gozaimas.

Love you: **愛している。**Aishiteiru

Bulgarian:

Thank you: Благодаря. Blagodarya

Love you: Обичам те. Obicham te

Here is how you say it in:

Croatian/Serbian:

I Love You - Volim te

Thank You - Hvala

I’m sorry - Oprostite/Izvinite

Slovenian:

I Love You - Imam te rad(a) or Ljubim te

Thank You - Hvala

I’m sorry - Se opravičujem

Hi @EricMartinezPH ,

This is a very nice idea to learn and share the love between different languages and nations.

I am from Bulgaria, but I also speak Chinese language, so I am going to tell you how are these sentences written and pronounced in Chinese.

I love you - 我爱你; pronunciation is “wǒ ài nǐ”;

Thank you - 谢谢 ; pronunciation is “xièxiè”

Keep in mind that Chinese has 4 tones and one zero tone when speaking, so if you say it in another tone, the meaning might turn quite different. For example:

Can I ask you something? - 请问, pronunciation “qǐng wèn”

Can I kiss you? - 请吻, pronunciation “qǐng wěn”

P.S.: I would like to ask @KlaudiyaG to teach us those great and sentimental sentences in French. : )

Hello @EricMartinezPH ,

Amazing initiative!

Since the two words were already told in Arabic in the video, I will tell them in Moroccan dialect. As you might know, the standard Arabic is one for all the Arab countries, but each of them has a particular dialect. Usually dialects are not written, except in few cases.

I love you - كنبغيك, Kanbghik

Thank you - شكرا, Shukran (same as standard Arabic)

Hey @EricMartinezPH ,

Nice video with great Local Guides, thank you for sharing it with us.

I didn’t hear Russian language either. So here are these kind phrases:

I love you! - Я тебя люблю!

Thank you! - Спасибо!

Hi @TsekoV ,

Thank you for tagging me, but I think that my fellow francophone Local Guides - Marie and @Julien44 did a great job in the video. :slight_smile:

@EricMartinezPH - I’m glad to hear that you like being part of this diverse community. It’s always nice to hear (read) that people are passionate about the Local Guides program. It literally makes my heart explode of happiness. I especially really enjoyed watching the video that you @GrethelP have created and seeing all these cameos, it really made my day. Thank you both so much for sharing! :slight_smile:

Nice video @EricMartinezPH !

In Spanish we have two ways of saying I love you and they are Te quiero and Te amo. And I’m pretty sure that most of the Local Guides knows the word Thank you in Spanish and that is Gracias.

Wow, thanks a lot for adding your piece too! We have to do this again for other phrases on another occasion with many more Local Guides included!

Have a great weekend!

Hi @EricMartinezPH ,

Thank you for sharing this video with us. It’s a very amazing video you have shared but the Thai language was not part of this video, so I am adding them now.

I love you= ฉันรักเธอ Chan Rak Ther หรือ ผมรักคุณ Phom Rak Khun.

Thank you= ขอบคุณค่ะ Khob Khun Kha หรือ ขอบคุณครับ Khob Khun Khap.
