Love Language Quiz

What are love languages?

The concept of love languages was popularized by Dr. Gary Chapman in his book "The Five Love Languages." He identifies the different ways people may communicate their love to one another. You can see a preview of the book here.

What are the different love languages?

Chapman suggests there are five love languages:

• words of affirmation

• acts of service

• receiving gifts

• quality time, and

• physical touch

  
  

  Each category can be expressed differently and vary from person to person. For example, someone whose primary love language is "quality time" values spending meaningful moments together, engaging in conversations, or sharing experiences that foster connection and intimacy. On the other hand, a person whose primary love language is "physical touch" may feel warmth, safety, and closeness with affectionate gestures, such as hugging, kissing, and holding hands.

How does recognizing love languages help?

You may better understand the unique ways love is expressed, as well as be able to better articulate your own needs.
