I Love You

Level 3Sounds Like miqʼvarkhar

მიყვარხარ (miq'varkhar) means I love you.

How It Works

A feeling verb has room for two people. The one who feels is marked at the front, and the one who is loved at the end. The endings look like the verb to be:

FormMeaning
მიყვარსI love him, her or it
მიყვარხარI love you
მიყვარხართI love you all, or you (polite)
გიყვარვარyou love me
ვუყვარვარhe or she loves me
გვიყვარხარwe love you

So in მიყვარხარ, the მ- says that I feel it, and the -ხარ says that you are the one loved, like ხარ (you are). In გიყვარვარ, the გ- is you and the -ვარ is me.

Like works the same way: მომწონხარ (momts'onkhar) (I like you).

If you say the pronouns, the person who feels is in the dative and the person loved in the nominative: მე შენ მიყვარხარ. Usually the verb is enough.

Common Mistakes

  • Keeping the -ს ending when the loved one is you.

    მე შენ მიყვარს.
    მე შენ მიყვარხარ.

    მიყვარს is for him, her or it. For you, the verb ends in -ხარ.
