May you always know how appreciated you are,
May you never forget what a blessing you are to me.

Thursday Thirteen - Mother in Different Languages

Header by Samulli

A mother's love is a special gift and as children, the word "mother" signifies care, love and sacrifice. Whatever language we speak, the love and affection that accompanies the word is the same everywhere. When I became a mom, it is one of the sweetest words I love to hear, my son calling me Mommy. So for Mother's Day, I thought of sharing 13 different languages for the word Mother.

1. Filipino - Ina, Nanay
   
2. Chechen - Nana
   
3. Japanese - Okaasan
   
4. Italian - Madre, Mamma
   
5. French - Me're
   
6. Slovak - Matka
   
7. German - Mutter
   
8. Danish - Mor
   
9. Hawaiian - Makuahine
   
10. Persian - Maman
    
11. Arabic - Ahm
    
12. Bulgarian - Majka
    
13. Czech - Abatyse
