    Oh, why didn't I see that coming? Once again, the great B'omarr wit.

    Actually, "eep opp ork ah ah" means something like "meet me at the park tomorrow" or something. That was the original "Elroy" meaning, but when George tried to play a trick on Judy by mailing in Elroy's secret code letter in place of Judy's lyrics, that rock star guy made it "I love you".


    "Eep opp ork ah ah
    Eep opp ork ah ah
    Eep opp ork ah ah
    And that means I love you!"

    Spanish=Te amo. (I think.)

    Sorry, I don't know any others. I could invent some other languages and tell you how to say "I love you" in them. But then, so could you.

    "I believe I am experiencing a particular emotional response. It is the one modern, english speaking Homo sapiens refer to as 'love.' This quote, unquote, love I feel is directed at the humanoid female to whom I am speaking... you, in other words."

    Klingon: bangwI' SoH "You are my beloved")
    : qamuSHa' ("I love you")
    : qamuSHa'qu'("I love you very much")
    : qaparHa' ("I like you")
    : qaparHa'qu'("I like you very much!")
    (words are often unnecessary as the thought is most often conveyed nonverbally with special growlings)

    Quenya: Tye-mela'ne

    I have no clue what that 3rd one is. What's the country/source? (fictional or not)

    As for Huttese, I can't find any online source for that. Maybe someone with the "Star Wars Galactic Phrase Book & Travel Guide (Phrase Book)" by Ben Burtt could check to see if it's in there

    Here's one which might be helpful
    Dopo mee gusha, peedunkey? - Do you feel lucky, punk?


    As for others...
    Spanish : Te amo (also Latin)
    : Te quiero
    : Te adoro ("I adore you")
    : Te deseo ("I desire you")
    : Me antojis ("I crave you")


    French : Je t'aime ("I love you")
    : Je t'adore (more intimate)
    : Je n'aime que toi ("I love only you")

    Chinese : Gwa ai li (Amoy)
    : Ngo oi nei (Cantonese)
    : Wo oi nei ( " )
    : Ngai oi gnee (Hakka)
    : Ngai on ni ( " )
    : Ai oi ngee ( " )
    : Wa ai lu (Hokkien)
    : Wo ai ni (Mandarin/Putonghua)
    : Ngo ai nong (Wu)

    Vulcan : Wani ra yana ro aisha

    Sukiyo in Japanese is "I like you"
    I love you is: A-i-shi-te ma-su

    whoops, sorry this is late. ah well...

    something that's along the lines of "i love you so much that i hope that i die before you so that i don't have to see you die"
    lebanese: t'abuurneh

    not exactly i love you, but more like darling or sweetheart:
    lebanese: ya habibe

    Numenorean (actually the proper term is Adûnaic) is from the LOTR world.

    Numenor, long story short, was the Atlantis style kingdom of men which Isildur was from, and from which Aragorn was distantly descended. It's mentioned briefly in the movie a couple times.

    Oh! Númenor! (smacks forehead). Didn't they speak Adûnaic? (supposedly the vernacular)
    THen it (might) be: zir(love)-ki(you). Dunno what "i" is translated as, or what the grammar structure is.
    zîrân - beloved

    Munkee: You? Look silly? riiight. I've got a Japanese roomate so I just ask her ;)



    Hindi : Mai tumase pyar karata hun (male to female)
    : Mai tumase pyar karati hun (female to male)

    Arabic: Ana behibak (female to male)
    : Ana behibek (male to female)
    (there are other variations... like formal vs. proper etc. etc.)


    Russian: Ya tyebya lyublyu
