Sugo alla marinara is great, but I wouldn't suggest to call your fianceé in this way, unless you can RUN really fast!

Oh cool! I think I finally got an idea for a Valentine's gift for my husband now.

I know some of these phrases or some of the words in the phrases.

I thought I love is Ti Amore? My husband and I say that to each other everyday. So we've been saying it wrong all this time?

I was also wondering about the heavenlymarinara sauce. I had to laugh when I read that because I wouldn't want to be heavenlymarinara sauce. lol

Si, you've been saying it wrong. It's Ti amo. In Spanish Te amo.
Comes from the verb amare. Ti amo. (Tee AH-moe)not Tie amo.

amare - to love
io amo, tu ami, Lei ama, noi amiamo, voi amate, loro amano(AH-mah-no) Amare is a regular verb
and is conjugated just like parlare is conjugated. If you remember I told everybody that parlare
can be used as a model verb so you'll know how to conjugate all Italian regular a-r-e verbs.

With the verb Parlare parl is the root or stem and a-r-e is the ending.
So take off the a-r-e ending and add each needed ending to the root of the verb parlare.

Io parl - o - parlo (PARR-low) (loh) I speak
Tu parl - i - parli (PARR-lee) you speak (informal
Lei parl - a - parla (PARR-lah) You speak (formal)
noi parl - iamo - parliamo (parr-lee-AH-moe)(moh) We speak
voi parl - ate - parlate (par-LAH-teh) You plural speak(all of you speak
loro parl - ano - parlano (PARR-lah-no) They speak

(Penso che spesso sia più facile) I think that most of the time it is just easier to memorize the verb parlare than to memorize the endings.
(Pero) However if you want to memorize o, i, a, iamo, ate, ano feell free to do so. I do both.

Capisci Mellisa? Understand? Hai capito? Did you understand?

I am so lost on that grammar lesson. lol

I know that I love you in Spanish is Te Amo. I don't know where I got Ti Amore from. I guess for some reason it always sounded like Ti Amore to me rather than Ti Amo. Is amore even a word then?

I'm beginning to feel extremely stupid. I've felt like a fool a few times on this message board now.

Well at least amore is a word. lol

I think I understand the grammar lesson now. At least I hope so.

Learning another language is so hard for me. I just started trying to learn Italian last year. The only reason I waited that long was because I had to learn Dutch first and back in the USA I couldn't find a course in it or someone to teach me.

Villa, are you sure this is a "love phrase"? If I said that to my man he'd probably think I was crazy....
