Francis Lee (X) Jan 27, 2007:
What's the context - apart from the obvious, i.e. romantic greetings? ;-) What I mean is: are these phrases to be translated for a German card company for export when logic suggests to me that it'd be simpler to just make up some original English phrases?

neutral sylvie malich (X) : The only one that sounds a bit like a Valentine's greeting is the last one "..together we can...", traditionally a Valentine's card reveals a secret admirer.
