5 Words For Love In Greek

Part of what makes Greek so beautiful is the fact that it is one of the richest languages in the world. There often are a couple of words that correspond to one word in English, but each with a slightly different meaning. My favourite example of this is the translation of the word `love`.

In Greek there are a couple of different words for this:

- Agape: empathetic, universal love- Philia: intimate, authentic friendship- Eros: Romantic, passionate love- Storge: unconditional, family love- Philautia: compassionate self-love
