Sorry I don't have much, but here goes...

Natlangs I know:

Spanish
    te amo, te quiero
Russian
    ja tebja ljublju
Persian (Iranian Farsi)
    toraa dust daaram (lit. "[to] you I give love"; aa = long a)
French
    je t'aime; je t'adore

My Conlangs:

Big Six

Tech: I haven't got that far in language design, but "my love" is
_H@viv@v~_, from Arabic _Habi:b_ and the native _-@v~_ 1st sg.
possessive (H = voiceless pharyngeal; v~ = labiodental nasal).

S@lav~,

Danny
