Expressing romantic or deep affection.
文化背景
Latvians are known for being reserved. A verbal 'I love you' is a significant event. Similar to Lithuania and Estonia, the culture values actions over words. Similar to Swedish or Norwegian culture, there is a preference for understatement. In contrast to some Slavic cultures where affection is expressed more demonstratively, the Baltic approach is more stoic.
Word Order
You can say 'Mīlu tevi' for a more poetic, dramatic effect.
Don't Rush
Latvians value sincerity. Don't say it until you truly mean it.
