My Italian

Spruce up Valentine’s Day with a message in Italian

Il giorno di San Valentino (Valentine’s Day), like pretty much everywhere else, is having a roaring success in Italy. The romantic (and, some would say, cheesy) nature of Italians makes for big business at this time of the year. Although people tend not to keep their identity a secret, bigliettini (cards) are popular along with regali (gifts) of cioccolatini (chocolates), fiori (flowers) or gioielli (jewellry). Men will feel they have to take their partners out for una cena a lume di candela (a candlelit dinner) and the ladies will almost certainly be shopping for new lingerie!

Here are some frasi d’amore (phrases of love) you may hear between couples on this romantic day:

Ti amo e spero di passare il resto della vita con te!
Sei tutto il mio cuore!
Hai rubato il mio cuore
Il mio amore è infinito, ti amerò per sempre!
La mia vita senza te sarebbe vuota come un cielo senza stelle, come un mare senza acqua!
In un cielo pieno di stelle, tu sei la più bella.
Il mio cuore si accende d’amore per te!
Non ti lascierò mai!
Sono follemente innamorata di te
Buon San Valentino!
I love you and hope to spend the rest of my life with you!
You are all my heart!
You have stolen my heart
My love is infinite, I will love you for ever!
My life without you would be as empty as a sky without stars, as the sea without water!
In a sky full of stars, you are the most beautiful!
My heart lights up with love for you!
I will never leave you!
I’m madly in love with you!
Happy Valentine’s day!
