Subject: [K-list] philologists counting subtle meanings
From: Ma An-Guo º¨¦wºê

Recently, someone made the following comment on this list:

| >| Unfortunately, the English language is short on words for love. I have
| >| a Friend from Muldavia who speaks Romanian and Russian and he says that
| >| there are as many as 20 different words to express love and its many
| >| types.

I asked an East-European friend about that and here is his comment:

| We just recently talked about this with T**'s ex-husband and we found
| that there are 3 words for love in Polish, 2 words in Ukrainian (or 3 if
| you count "like" in "I like her") and 1 (2 with "like") word in Russian.
| Don't know about Romanian language but it is very close to French. As I
| understand, they can understand a speach in French.
|
| 20 might come from a philologist who counts subtle meanings ...

Maybe we ought to actively start coining new words for different types of
love...

Love,
(or Blessings, or Regards or Whatever...)

Augustin.
