How To Say “I Love You” In Tagalog
Saying I love you in Tagalog isn’t as straightforward as you think. The direct translation is:
Mahal kita.
I love you.
Take note that mahal also means “expensive” in Tagalog. For example:
Ang mahal ng cellphone.
The cellphone is expensive.
There’s also an old-fashioned, or should I say “poetic,” way of saying I love you in Tagalog:
Iniibig kita/Iniirog kita.
I love you.
Here are other ways/variations of saying I love you in Tagalog:
Mahal din kita.
I love you too.
Minahal kita.

Mahal na mahal kita.
I love you very much.
Mahal na mahal din kita
I also love you very much.
