“Liebling” & More Sweet German Nicknames To Call Your Loved Ones | Beelinguapp Blog (2024)
Are you in need of a new and interesting way to call your special someone? Then use German pet names or Kosenamen! Of course, we understand that the German language may not be your first pick when it comes to coming up with sweet terms of endearment, but this beautiful language is not exempt from any darling terms that can make someone’s foot pop. You know that thing that happens in the movies, when something mushy happens then someone’s foot just pops. So… say tschüss to the usual English terms for your bae like “sweetheart,” “sugarplum,” and “sweet pea” because German is here to the rescue.
Two things to know about German Terms of Endearment:
Many German nicknames come from animal names. So, don’t be surprised if you hear common pet names like Hasenfürzchen (bunny fart) or Bärchen (little bear).
Most German affectionate terms are diminutive versions of regular words. These words sound so cute and sweet that they never fail to make you feel the butterflies.
You don't have to go to the end of the rainbow to find it, because "Schatz" is by far the most common German term of endearment. It's popular among lovers and old married couples, but also used for children.
If you're responding to someone who says “Ich liebe dich” — and if the feeling is mutual — you can either say “Ich liebe dich” or “Ich liebe dich auch” (“I love you too”) in return.
'Alte Liebe rostet nicht' First love, last love: The German idiom translates as, "Old love doesn't rust." It's a very old saying that stems from the Latin "vetus amor non sentit rubiginem" ("Old love does not know rust"). Feelings of love one had do not fade.
To express romantic love for a girlfriend or boyfriend, for example, one would use the German phrase Ich liebe Dich, or "I love you." Other German phrases related to love and romance include: der Kuss: the kiss. die Liebe: the love. die Romantik: the romance, romantic.
In General when you refer to your boyfriend or girlfriend in German you call them “Freund” or “Freund-in” with the “in” representing the female gender. However, “Freund” or “Freundin” also refers to friends in general. Freund (masculine) and Freundin (feminine).
