As you can see, "amar" refers to a deep romantic love and affection for another person; while "querer" can mean love or affection, too, but also many other forms wanting.  This is similar to how "want" is used for a variety of desires--both interpersonal and otherwise--in English.

The verbs “amar” and “querer” in Spanish have different meanings and nuances depending on the context and the object of the verb. In general, “amar” is a stronger and deeper feeling of love, while “querer” is more common and can also mean “to want” or “to like”.

In German, there is not a clear distinction between these two verbs, but there are some possible ways to express different degrees of love or affection. 

The most common verb for “to love” in German is __lieben__, which can be used for romantic love, family love, or even love for things or activities. For example:

- Ich liebe dich. (I love you.)
- Ich liebe meine Familie. (I love my family.)
- Ich liebe Musik. (I love music.)

However, lieben can also be translated as “to like” in some contexts, especially when it is used with the modal verb mögen, which means “to like” or “to want”. For example:

- Ich mag dich. (I like you.)
- Ich mag dich sehr. (I like you very much.)
- Ich mag dich gern. (I like you a lot.)
- Ich mag dich lieber. (I prefer you.)
- Ich mag dich am liebsten. (You are my favorite.)

Another way to express affection or fondness in German is to use the verb gernhaben, which literally means “to have gladly”. This verb is usually used for friends, relatives, or pets, but it can also be used for romantic partners in a less formal or intense way. For example:

- Ich habe dich gern. (I like you.)
- Ich habe dich sehr gern. (I like you very much.)
- Ich habe dich lieb. (I love you.)

As you can see, there is not a one-to-one correspondence between the Spanish verbs “amar” and “querer” and the German verbs “lieben”, “mögen”, and “gernhaben”. The meaning of these verbs depends on the context, the tone of voice, the body language, and the relationship between the speakers. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to these cues when expressing or interpreting feelings of love or affection in German.<|im_end|>

The Spanish verbs "amar" and "querer" both relate to feelings of affection, but they are often translated differently in English:

    "Amar": The verb "amar" translates to "to love" in English. It signifies a deep and profound emotional connection and affection. It's used for expressing strong feelings of love for family members, romantic partners, or even things or activities that one feels a deep attachment to.

    "Querer": The verb "querer" generally translates to "to want" or "to like" in English. While it can sometimes be translated as "to love" in certain contexts, it is often used to convey a sense of wanting, desiring, or liking something or someone. It's a bit less intense than "amar."

It's important to note that translations of emotions and feelings between languages can be nuanced, and the exact usage of these words might vary depending on the context. The concepts of love and affection can have cultural and linguistic differences that might not always align perfectly between languages.<|im_end|>
