🇯🇵 How to Say I Love You in Japanese

I love you in Japanese
愛してる

The standard way to say I love you in Japanese — safe in any situation.

Worth knowing: Japanese people rarely say 愛してる out loud. Affection is usually expressed with 好きです (suki desu, "I like you") — which carries real romantic weight in a confession.
