Abstract :As a new field of study “Kurdish Studies” needs to be studied in a detailed way in order to attract attention in linguistic and social studies. Through such studies the interdisciplinary approaches will bring about new doors of the field, just on this point a contrastive study of the words expressing love in Kurdish-Kurmanji and English is crucial in the usage of the semantics and pragmatics. Being a very sensitive issue, love requires great attention of the feelings from all level of society to the individual one. A thematically classification of words in both languages will facilitate the grasp of the issue, thence, the grasp of the language/culture.
Keywords : Love, Contrast, Kurdish-Kurmanji, English, Culture
