Love - Family

Listen to the Entire Lesson

There are several types of love. There is the love you have for your parents or children, the love you have for your wife or husband, the love you feel for a new girlfriend or a boyfriend, and the love you have for a friend. These are the primary things I will cover here. If you are curious about other types, feel free to ask specific questions and we will tell you the English equivalent. For now, let's talk about love.

Family love

I heard that the most unselfish love is the love from the mother to her child. It must be powerful and if you are a mother, you will probably understand. It's not common to talk to your mother or father about how much they love you. It is more common to talk to friends about this. Here are some sentences for this conversation.

Talking to friends about parents

"I can't believe how much parents love their children."
"Although my mother always nags at me, I know she loves me so much."
"I'm amazed at how much my parents gave up to give me a better life."

"I'm such a bad daughter. After realizing how much my parents gave me, I feel so sad that I didn't show my appreciation."
"I think you will understand how much your parents love you when you get your own children."

"When my parents can't take care of themselves, I will feel happy to take care of them. It's the least I can do to repay all that they gave me."

Talking to friends about children

"I don't know what I would do if I lost my child."
"I finally understand how easy it was for my parents to give me so much after I got my daughter."
"I love my son so much. I don't know what I would do without him."
"Love is so powerful. Even before my son was born, I had this bond with him that I couldn't understand."
"I'm going to do everything for my child."
