I believe that here we have people from all around the world, so I decided to begin a list of "I love you" in many languages.
To begin, I'll tell you how we say that in my language:
Portuguese/Português: "Eu te amo"
What about you???
Jeg elsker dig
...Denmark!
Wo ai Ni! - chinese
naan unnai kaadhilikiraen - tamil.
i speak 3 languages:
french: J'adores-tu.
cantonese: Ngo oi lei
mandarin: Wo ai ni.

I was under the impression "adorer" was closer to a feeling of worship and that "Je t'aime" was closer to "I love you"?
I was about to post it in french and then I gained a level of confusion. I at one point knew enough welsh that I should be able to remember how to say it but I for some reason can't at the moment... the same is true of latin. :/
Anyway I supose it doesn't realy count as a language since its been dead for so long, but i'll be crazy and post it anyway.
Old Tongue (3rd dialect): Caedis Al'trein (directly: "Soul Your Attached", Basicaly "My heart longs for(or is very attached to) yours", so in general an I love you.)
(to lazy to post all 12 dialects... I would probubly mess them up anyway.)
I would realy be interested to know how it is said in some of the "tonal"(sp?) languages, but I know that is next to impossible to post on a forum.
Te iubesc!
.....Romanian.
Kocham Cię!
in Polish.
I have a weird feeling that I have seen a similar topic somewhere before ;]
In spanish:
Te amo
Te quiero
In catalan:
T'estimo
wo ai ni or wo hen xi huan ni
In mandarin chinese

You are right there,
Je t'adore is I adore you
I love you is Je t'aime or Je vous aime (the posh you) 
Yup yup.. Je t'aime = i love you.
A simpler and faster way of getting all the 'i love you' in different languages in preparations for the upcoming Valentine's Day so that you may express to your loved one(s) is to use an online translator like worldlingo or babelfish.
Feeling free today so i tought i'll post the results i got:
Spanish = te quiero
French = je t'aime
German = ich liebe dich
Italian = ti amo
Portugese = eu te amo
Dutch = ik houd van u
Korean = 나는 너를 사랑한다 (sarang hae yo)
Spanish = te quiero
Japanese = 私は愛する (Aishite iru)
Russian = я тебя люблю (Ya tebya lublu)
Greek = σας αγαπώ (S' agapo)
Swedish = jag älskar dig
Chinese = 我爱你 (wo ai ni)
Arabic = أنا أحبّ أنت (Ana behibak [to male] Ana behibek [to female])
And while doing my search... i came across this website: http://www.links2love.com/i_love_you_languages.htm
Say I LOVE YOU in 100 languages
That's all the loving you'll probably need to express yourself.
Spread a little more love around this Valentine's and to the ladies out there... "Happy Valentine's Day"

My ex-girlfriend always wanted to visit Norway and had a bit of the language. At least now I know she wasn't saying anything bad. Always a plus.

Its amazing with all the different languages, it all means the same thing
In Japanese: aishitemasu or suki desu (normally watashi which means I is not mentioned)
In Osaka dialect: suki ya nen
In Malay: saya cinta pada mu.
Bengali : Ami Tomake Bhalo Bashi
Hindi : (मै तुमसे प्यार करता हूँ) Mai Tumse Pyar Karta Hoon
Oriya : Mu Tomoko Bhalo Basi

"Of course I will hold your hair back while you vomit darling!"
That says I Love You more than any other phrase.
Tagalog : Mahal kita.
Illongo : Palangga ta ka.
Ginahigugma ta ka.
I'm from Norway. Our language is very similar to Danish and Swedish. We say: "Jeg elsker deg"
Irish Tá mé i ngrá (leat.)
Basically means I am in love with you.
Mujhay tum se Mohabbat hai
OR
mujhay tum se pyar hai
OR
Main tum se pyar karta hun
OR
Main tumhe chahta hun
I'd contribute but people have already put in the languages I know. Very useful thread, IMO.
Agni : Min klo wo
Dioula : M'bi fe
that indian language
ma-ii, tum-see, pyaa-r, kar-ta, huu
"," seprate the words
aku cinta padamu
kau cinta pada ku..?
Mandarin: Wo ai ni
Duetsch: Ich liebe dich
Shanghai dialect: Wu ei nong.
Russian = Ya tebya lublu
Ukrainian = Ya tebe kohau 
Classical Latin: Ego amat tu!
In Tagalog, "I love you" can also be translated to "Iniibig kita" or "Sinisinta kita."

I'm afraid not
I'm French, the real sentence is "Je t'Adore" but this can be told to a friend of yours with the sens "I like you"
"I love you" with its full sens and consequence is said "Je t'aime" in French 
Tiako ianao

OT: just came back from beijing, baoding, hk. and i have to say chinese people are characters... very PROUD characters. the whole thing going on at xiushui (@ beijing) i've never seen my entire life. like wow.
this is the bible the salesladies use:

Moi tumak bhal pau - Assamese
But it literally translates into "I like you". Apparently we don't love that much! 
Tengo amor-spanish
literally means "I have a love"
In MY language, it is licking my finger very passionately. Now, that's how you say I love you
I know it in 3 languages:
Ana Behibek = Arabic
Ya lublu tebya = Russian
Ninapenda wewe = Swahili
turkish:
seni seviyorum
seni chok seviyorum = i love you a lot
well i speak 3 langues
Norwegian - jeg elsker deg
Vietnamese - anh yeu em
english - i love you (LOL HAHA)
w00t...eeti power
in Estonian
Mina armastan sind
or
Ma armastan sind
i know Estonian is very similar to Finish so it might be the same
P.S. this isint very useful only 1 million people speak Estonian
Besides the 'I love you' in english I also speak Rumanian; 'Te iubesc' and the Norwegian; Jeg elsker deg'
Soon I'll learn french, and even if I know the french verson I can't say that it's a language I know
I LOVE YOU - English
Ninnae naenu premisthinaaru - Telegu
Naan unnai kaadhalikuraen - Tamil
Mein tum se pyaar kartha tha - Hindi
I love you - english =P
Anh yeu em - vietnamese (masculine form)
Em yeu anh - vietnamese (feminine form)

i probably shouldn't admit this but when me and my fiance are together sometimes we say i love you like "i lovzies youzies"
i pretty sure alot of couples do that..i hope..that or we're just retarded lol
Slovakian: "Milujem ta."
Czech: "Miluji te."
Very similar languages, in both versions the I is ommited. If i would translate I Love You word for word it would be "Ja milujem teba." which is never used
All the other languages i am able to speak were already mentioned. 
German:
"Ich liebe dich!"
Hrvatski (Croatia):
Volim te.
01101000 10100100 11101101

Hey,
I think you have very little knowledge in "Telugu" (Not Telegu).
In Telugu - Nenu Ninnu Premistunnaanu
I am trying to correct you.. Is it ok?

We speak four languages, English, Italiano, Somali and Arabic , but since Somali is my Homeland language.
"Waan ku jecelahay" or simply "Waa ku jeclahay" is exact meaning of "I Love You" in Somali.
Somali is simple language written in Latin script. We pronounce the "C" as the Arabic character "ع". We speak Somali
If you write "143", its the number language of "I Love You"

Afrikaans - Ek het jou lief.
Other than English, I speak 3 other languages:
Italian: Ti amo
French: Je t'aime
German: Ich liebe dich
in moroccan:
ana tanebghikk.
different from the arabic:
ana ouhibbouk.
Te amo in spanish.
Yo te amo would be the exact translation (in spanish you don't need the "I" to express the person... the verb's form implies it).
in cebuano: gihigugma ko ikaw

Mein tum se pyaar kartha tha - Hindi |
As far as my knowledge of Hindi goes "Mein tumse pyaar kartha tha" is "I used to love you"! And anyways its "karta" not "kartha". So the correct sentence will be "Mein tumse pyaar karta hu(n)".
Its okay though, i'm guessing its not your mother tongue. Neither is it mine.

It does not matter which language is chosen, it is so easy to say such words but it's damn hard to mean it.
Also, saying these words is not nearly as important as showing the feeling through actions.

Spanish = te quiero
Japanese = 私は愛する (Aishite iru)
