How to Say “I Love You” in Hebrew

i love you

he → EnglishcasualInstant · from the shared dictionary
i love you

This is the standard, direct way to express deep romantic affection in Hebrew. The mental image is a clear, heartfelt declaration between two people who share a significant emotional bond. While the phrase is straightforward, Hebrew grammar requires gender agreement. Use "אני אוהב אותך" (ani ohev otach) when speaking to a female, and "אני אוהבת אותך" (ani ohevet otcha) when speaking to a male. It is a serious expression usually reserved for established relationships.
