My suggestion: Lyblyu?
Or is it difficult?
Yeah, but unfortunately there's not anything like "I would never let a woman kick my ass. If she tried something, I'd be like, HEY! You get your bitch ass back in the kitchen and make me some pie!"Quote:

There are two reasons why this is wrong.Quote:

Oh yes. I let the letter out mistakingly. So, what I meant is acceptable.
This is a link to a great site I've seen before but lost track of. Thanks!Quote:

As the title of this thread states, I am more interested in the phrase "I like...". As in, "I like you". Would that phrase be better stated this way in Russian?
Ты мне нравишься
How would some of you compare the use if these two phrases?
Yep, when it comes to people use the нравиться verb. If you like playing soccer you любишь играть в футболQuote:

Perhaps someone could clear this up in the audio lounge? Or the topic moved?
Sco
Clear up what?
I once heard somebody say it like this:
я люблю вac
Or you can say "yellow blue bus".
It's not correct at all, but it is strangely close.
"Yellow blue vase" is even better :-P
