How Do I Love Thee?
HOW DO I LOVE THEE? Let me count the words... How do different cultures around the world think about LOVE, and how is it reflected in LANGUAGE? The word "love" has so many translations, even within a single language! And think about all the ways in which we love - romantic, maternal, even the heart-pounding ache of a first love. These types of love (and many more) have their own translations, too. Oh, how we love to talk about love!
