        Yes, EU is optional, but either you would say "eu te amo"(as
said in Brazil; we don't usually ommit the pronouns), or "amo-te" (the
Portugal way).
        "Te amo" is wrong grammatically, but may be heard in Brazil.
        I wrote only one translation because I didn't want to overload,
as I did on the countries/nationalities/languages thread.
