    Default Is English the language of love?

    More and more people from different countries get hitched and their main language for communication is often English because of its status as the international language. I believe Spanish or Italian are no longer the language of love since they are rarely used by others to break the language barrier whereas English is more often used to penetrate that barrier nowadays.

    I will be honest and say that I don't really think English is romantic language... To me it is language of business. I dated foreigners but some love words i prefer to hear on their own language better than in English. I'm sorry, but I just cant feel soul of the language and dont fond it enough powerful...

    I agree. English is just "needed" not really enjoyed to speak of love matters. If I had to pick a language that suits love, I would of course say italian or french.
    English is pretty cool, and I enjoy watching movies and reading books in their original language, but I believe it to be sort of aseptic.

    Not when it's my lips or hands that use it; then it's the language of hate.

    I love the English language. First I said and heard "I love you" in English...
