- Je t’adore — I adore you. Harkening back to your first few French lessons when you learned the word aimer, you likely also learned the word adorer, which translates to “to adore”.
- Tomber amoureux (de quelqu’un) — To fall in love (with someone) Unlike the confusion between aimer or adorer, this phrase is purely romantic and you won’t have to worry about nuance when using it.
- Le coup de foudre — Love at first sight. Figurative language can be one of the hardest parts of learning a new language. So, if you’re dipping your toes into French metaphors or idioms, let this be one of the first ones you learn.
- Je suis fou de toi — I’m crazy about you. One thing the French and English can agree on is that telling someone you’re crazy about them is indicative of serious feelings.

1. Mon amour
Meaning: My love You probably recognize this term since it’s pretty universal. It sounds very similar to other romance languages and is even often used by English speakers. The meaning of mon amour is straightforward, and out of all the entries on the list, you will probably hear this one the most often, though it’s usually reserved for romantic partners or love interests.
2. Mon beau / Ma belle
Meaning:My beautiful These terms literally translate to “my beautiful” but also can mean “my boyfriend” or “my girlfriend”, depending on the form used.
3. Ma moitié
Meaning: My other half While it is more literally translated as “my other half” in English, I like to think of this as “my better half.” After all, that’s the whole idea, right? We make our other halves more special by putting them up on a pedestal. Ma moitiéis, like in English, usually said to a “partner in crime” or a “main squeeze.”
11. Mon chéri / Ma chérie
Meaning: My darling Lucky for you, this is a direct translation. However, let me remind you that the French word chérieis more complex than you think. Can you tell me the difference betweenchérie, chéri, cher and chère? Ma chérie (said to women) and mon chéri (said to men) both refer to “my darling,” butma chère (for women) and mon cher (for men) both translate to “my dear.” While these words are similar, they do technically have different meanings, so just keep that in mind. Like mon cœur an...
12. Mon cœur
Meaning:My heart Mon cœuris not as regularly used in English, but it is fairly common in French. I would say that mon cœurtranslates—though not literally—to “my sweetheart.” This one is typically used in romantic contexts but can also be used by parents to refer to their children. In this manner, English is similar as most English speakers will refer to their own kids in a similar way.
13. Mon trésor
Meaning: My treasure Although it literally means “my treasure,” I would more closely equate this to “my precious” in English, referring to a loved one. In reality, mon trésor is kind of just its own word that is hard to directly translate as it doesn’t quite mean the same thing. In French, mon trésorcan be said to both males and females, friends, family and children.
26. Mon biquet / Ma biquette
Meaning:My lamb This term of endearment meaning “my lamb” is used similarly to “sweetie” or “little one” and is mainly used when talking to children.
27. Mon caneton
Meaning: My duckling Canard , as most of you might know, means “duck” in French. Mon canetonis the charming, cuter way to express love while still talking about ducks. This one is pretty common for referring to children. There are no variations for this phrase, but it canbe used for both males and females, so disregard the masculinity!
28. Ma coccinelle
This term is often used as a sweet pet name for loved ones, but typically not in the romantic sense. This would be said more often in a parent-daughter relationship. Example: Aujourd’hui tes cheveux sont trop beaux, ma coccinelle ! (Your hair is so beautiful today, my ladybug!)
The diminutive can be tricky as it may exist somewhat in English, but it’s not at all the same as it is in French. English diminutive examples are itsy, bitsy, tubsy or wubsy. The diminutive is essentially meant to make things cuter, which you’ve already seen instances of earlier. It also appears in some of the terms of endearment in the video belo...

Feb 22, 2020 · Meaning: I love you Literal translation: I like you Example: Je t’aime mon amour. | I love you my love. Context tips: “Je t’aime” is a strong expression of love, so use it sparingly. It is not at all of part of French culture to use “i love you/it/her” in a casual way.
