Hey! ๐Ÿ‘‹ How should someone take/interpret โ€œti voglio tanto tanto beneโ€? What are the differences between ti voglio bene, ti amo, e mi piaci?
Grazie!
CIao! I thought I had already written a post but I can't find it (maybe you will, if you want to search on @sayitalianohome). No problem anyway, let's see it all again briefly:
-ti voglio bene = I love you; but we use it more with family members and friends. it's mostly platonic love. Literally means something like: "I want good to you" "I want to give you good" "You are good to me" "You do well to me and I want to do well to you" "you are precious to me" or even "I care a lot about you". So, to stress how much "good you want to give the other", how precious they are for you, you can add one (or more) "tanto" = a lot, much, very. A person who tells you "ti voglio tanto bene" sees you as very valuable, they may be a friend or sb that likes you and cares about you/appreciates you, or even wanted to thank you for something you said/did for them like staying by their said in a difficult moment (still they do really think good of you and have "feelings" but in general, not romantic ones -or they didn't confess yet). Ofc "ti voglio bene" can be said also by romantic partners as you deeply care about your person (e.g. think about after a deep convo, like you would with a friend).
-ti amo = I love you. It's the "I love you" that more often is said between romantic partners. The one about deep love and affection (like in movies and books :)). BUT tbh, it can be used among family members too: e.g. a daughter/son may say "ti amo" to their parents. It stresses how deep is their bond with them. It's ofc not the romantic love, but a deeper level of "ti voglio bene", the next step. A love bond that is not easy to be broken: "ti voglio bene" at times feels a little more superficial or "not enough", despite it doesn't have to be so: many soulful "ti voglio bene" can equal or feel more profound than one "ti amo" said randomly. It depends more on the acception you want to give to your words, how clear you want to be in what you say: if you want to deliver the first "I love you" to your partner and express you have romantic feelings for them, you may opt for a "ti amo" (a "ti voglio bene" may be misinterpreted as with a friendly-type of love). "Ti amo", especially recently, can be heard also among friends/bffs (especially females bffs, but I can be wrong): girls may call each other "amo" (shorten version of "amore"; you can see that as the the English "luv" ig) and tell each other "ti amo", again as for a deeper type of love than "ti voglio bene". Kinda like the "ily" you can share online with people you feel close with. We MAY also say "ti amo" out of a burst of emotions to a friend/sb who told us something nice or shared with us something, or appreciated us or esp. gifted us something cool or that we wanted deeply e.g. "noo ma io ti amo!" = "no way/that's crazy, Ily!". So, it can happen ofc with a romantic partner but also with sb else -again it's about the depth of feelings- (dw the context will let you know that clearly if it has no romantic acception -despite the emotional moment, you generally use it only with people you know and/or understand what you mean e.g. close friends/bff.)
-mi piaci = I like you. As simple as. It can be that this person likes you physically or even a trait about the character, or how you think. They think you're fine, at least. Different from "mi piace": this refers more likely to something you said. E.g. you said something cool or shared an idea on how to spend the afternoon together (even with your friend) and they say "uh, mi piace!" = "uh, I like that!"
-> On a side note, you can "amare" a hobby, and your pet too: Amo fare esercizio = I love working out/exercising. Amo leggere = I love reading. Amo il mio cane = I love my dog. But ofc you can also "just" like your hobbies (it depends how far into them you feel and how much you want to convey their importance to those listening/reading your words. Amare is ofc a deeper experience than just piacere): Mi piace fare esercizio = I like working out/exercising. Mi piace leggere = I like reading. Mi piace uscire col mio cane/coi miei amici = I like going out with my dog/with my friends. Generally you don't use "volere bene" for hobbies or such, but only for people. Cause "volere bene" is a feeling that originates from caring for another soul (ofc, you can use it for your pet though).
Hope it somewhat helps. I know it's not too easy to get the differences between the first two, so if you have questions please send!

Everything Changed Last Week
I had to rearrange some things last week, but I made it work. Still, I made it work. I think I forgot I was posting Kodoku on Saturday and that I needed to work on Tengoku.Chikyu.Jigoku for the week too. This week, I will have it sorted out.
This is going to be the last week that Thursday and Friday will be free before I pick up When Angels Deserve to Die on the schedule. Production will start in September. Until then, it's going to be Tea Leaves, Ghosts of Wonderland, and Tengoku.Chikyu.Jigoku as usual. On another note, it doesn't feel like we have four more months until 2024 is over. We always ask this around this time, but where did the year go?
This Week:
Tea Leaves and Pale Lace
Ghosts of Wonderland
Tengoku.Chikyu.Jigoku
Italian Amore
Lupin IV
Red Sash Books

I Messed Up
I forgot two more things that I was working on this week. Kodoku and Childish Devil. I am so sorry for that. Those happened and this time I am going to make sure that I don't forget anything this week.
Pale Lace and Ghosts are going great. I have an idea of where I am going to go for Ghosts lately halo. I was a little stuck but I can pull it off. Meanwhile, it will be work as usual. I just can't wait to get started on When Angels Deserve to Die next month. I will have the whole Wasteland triology up and running.
This Week's List:
Tea Leaves and Pale Lace
Ghosts of Wonderland
Kodoku
Tenshi Trail: Comet
Leo and Kana
Italian Amore
Tengoku.Chikyu.Jigoku
