how do you say i miss you

Tip for best answer: M$0.25
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Can be also "vous me manquez" (voo muh mah-nkay) as in English the familiar, plural and polite forms make use of "you" and in French we use two different forms :)

Native French speaker, lol.

It's "Tu me manques" (pronounced "too muh mah-nk," roughly, or /ty mə mɑ̃ke/ using the International Phonetic Alphabet).

It's backwards to how you say it English; we say "I miss you," and they say "You me miss" (or, I suppose, a more poetic and literal translation of it, "You are missing to me"). It takes a bit to get used to their "backwards" order, but it's not too hard once you get into the swing of things.
