Below are the Five Love Languages.

1: Words Of Affirmation

This love language uses words to affirm the other person. Telling the person: 'I really appreciate your washing the car', 'You look great', 'Thanks for taking out the garbage', 'I love you the way you are', 'You look nice in that outfit' etc.

If a person's primary love language is words of affirmation, your words will be like rain falling on dry soil. Nothing will speak more deeply of your love than words of affirmation .

2: Acts Of Service

Acts of service is the key to loving this person. Find out what things they would like for you to do, then do them consistently. E.g, Helping them around the house.

To them, action speaks louder than words. You can help them Cook, clean the car, paint the house,etc. When you tell this person you love them, they might reply ' if you love me then help me do this or that'. Please take note and do them.

3: Receiving Gifts

For some, what makes them feel most loved is to receive gifts from their partner. The gift communicates no matter how little. Ensure you surprise him or her with a present frequently cheap or expensive.

4: Quality Time

Quality time is giving the person undivided attention. To them that's all that matters. For example, going on a trip together, taking a walk, discussing eye ball to eye ball,Playing with the kids,etc.

5: Physical Touch

We have long known the emotional power of physical touch. To the person whose primary love language is physical touch, nothing speaks deeply than appropriate touch. Learn to embrace them when they are emotionally down or give them a peck for a job well done.
