Phrase of the Week: Love Week
Te amo vs. Te quiero: What’s the Difference?
In Spanish, both phrases mean I love you, but they are used in different contexts.
Te amo: A deep, romantic love, often used for partners or very close family members.
Te quiero: A more casual and affectionate way to say I love you, often used for friends, family, or a significant other in a lighter way.
