OP wants to say "ai" is a Chinese word and he is correct. But there are native Japanese words equivalent to love/ai.
Do you love Japan?
>>77340290
we have "lütfen" arabic tho.But still works
>>77340206
same with french. aimer comes from the chinese word ai. basically chinese people taught the world about love.
What is 好き
German doesn't have a native word for hobby
>>77340427
hell no

Yeah, fuck those JPAS

I think that's normal. English borrowed many words from other languages.
>>77340206
>not native
>says American
めでる,すく,いつくしむ,こひ,おもふ
>>77340481
好き≠愛している
>english doesn't have native word for "native"
>>77340206
Is こい also a borrowed word?
Also, doesn't surprise me. Historically speaking, Asian cultures were never big on romantic love.
>>77340730
めづ or おもふ=愛する
>>77340731
>american (english) doesn't have a native word for "vegetable"
really makes you think

恋(こい)=大和言葉
恋(れん)=漢語

>Is こい also a borrowed word?
No.
We have a native word for "love", but have no native word for "air" and "lake".

>恋(koi)
>慈しみ(itsukusimi)
Now kill yourself
>inb4 muh 'written in Chinese DD'
There are two ways to read Kanji : 音読 and 訓読. Former means reading in Chinese and Latter means reading in native Japanese.
And both 恋 and 慈しみ are 音読。

What? When Japs have intercourse they just grunt "SEKUSU! SEKUSU!"?
>>77342057
>Japs having sex
>>77341085
That's just not true m8, you have historical accounts of people doing crazy shit for their waifu' sake since ancient times over there.
>>77340340
I bet you look slightly manchurian :^)
>>77341085
koi→孤悲 →こひ→こい
>>77340206
American education
>>77340206
So that's what the Korean meant by that "love is not in Japanese"
>>77342057
your mom was so
>>77340206
Doesn't Japanese have those pairs "native vs. chinese-like" for the majority of words? Like "hito" vs. "-jin" etc.
