How do you say love in Lakota?

A more common way to say "I love you" in Lakota Sioux is Tecihila (pronounced tay-chee-hee-lah), though, which means simply "I love you." Or if you're feeling more poetic, Cantecikiya (pronounced chawn-tay-chee-kee-yah), which means "my heart is inspired by you." Iyakiciyuha isn't all that romantic.
