Recently, a lot of phrases have been appearing on the internet. These phrases have meanings that are not in accordance with the actual meaning. These phrases have a deep meaning about expressing someone's feelings in a romantic relationship to their partner. Let's see what the phrases below mean!

1. The moon is beautiful, isn't it?

I love you

A while ago this phrase went viral on social media. Many people used this phrase as a caption on Twitter with a picture of the moon. Then, what does the word mean? Quoted from Tsuki, a photo and video page, the moon is beautiful is a poetic phrase to convey feelings of love to a partner. This phrase means "I love you."

This phrase was originated by a Japanese writer named Natsume Soseki. At that time, Soseki was a teacher who heard a student translate the phrase "I love you" rigidly into Japanese as "ware kimi wo aisu." Soseki, who lived between 1867 - 1916, believed this rigid style had something to do with the Meiji period.

The translation diluted the sensibilities of the Japanese people. Therefore, Soseki came up with a more beautiful phrase to translate "I love you," which is "tsuki ga kirei desu ne" which translates into English as "the moon is beautiful, isn't it?"

2. The star is beautiful, isn't it?

I like you

This phrase has the same meaning as the previous one. It is used to code someone and express feelings of admiration for someone. This phrase is often used to express first-time feelings for someone. If someone sends you a picture of beautiful stars with the words "the star is beautiful, isn't it?" it means that the person likes you. The phrase "the star is beautiful, isn't it?" means "I like you." 

3.  The sunrise is beautiful, isn't it?

I love you, so don't leave me

This phrase also has a different meaning than the actual meaning. This phrase has a deep meaning about a relationship. This phrase refers to a romantic relationship or a unique code to a partner or loved one not to go away from them. If someone sends this phrase with a picture of a sunrise, it means that they love you very much and don't want to let you go. The phrase "the sunrise is beautiful, isn't it?" means "I love you, so don't leave me."

4. The sunset is beautiful, isn't it?

I love you, but I'm letting go

As beautiful as the previous three, this phrase also has a very deep meaning. In fact, this phrase is not meant to describe the beauty of nature, so some people don't necessarily know the meaning of this phrase. Unlike the previous phrases that are expressions of affection for a partner, this phrase is actually a code of separation to a partner in a romantic relationship.
