How to say I miss you in Chinese?wǒ xiǎnɡ nǐ le - 我想你了 Its literal meaning is almost identical to 'I'm thinking about you.' But there's a subtle grammatical difference: the final word 了le. Technically, it indicates a change of state: in Chinese, missing someone isn't just an action; it's a state of mind. If you just wanted to say that you were thinking about someone, you wouldn't include 了 (le). You might remember 了 from other statements of mood, like wǒ shēnɡ qì le - 我生气了 - I am angry. wǒ shānɡ xīn le - 我伤心了 - I am sad Each one indicates that the speaker's mood is in a new state. In 我想你 wǒ xiǎnɡ nǐ, the function of 了 is the same. As with other statements of mood, you can add intensifiers: wǒ fēi chánɡ xiǎnɡ nǐ- 我非常想你 - I miss you so much wǒ zhēn de hěn xiǎnɡ nǐ - 我真的很想你 - I really miss you. and so on. And for people you don't miss because they never go away, you can say wǒ bù xiǎnɡ nǐ - 我不想你! - I don't miss you You can also ask whether someone misses you: nǐ xiǎnɡ wǒ mɑ ? - 你想我吗 ? - Do you miss me? Chinese language is profound. There are also other statements for I miss you. Here are some examples: wǒ sī niàn nǐ- 我思念你 - I miss you. This sentence means I miss you.
