What do you call your partner - darling, sweetheart, babe? Turns out, there are many more inventive terms of endearment used around the world, including 'egg with eyes', 'my little cabbage' and 'cute nose'.
So we decided to illustrate some of our faves.

My Little Microbe - Italian

My Little Round Thing - Flemish
Half An Orange - Spanish
Right, because when we talk about someone's partner, we say he/she is his/her "half-orange". It's not that common, though, there are many more expressions, but just for the pic I like it even more. :)

"Mi Media Naranja" to be exact. Because we are both juicy and then we squish each other!
Never heard of this one, but who knows. What ever makes your skirt fly!
This is a typical Spanish expression. I live in Spain. It's everywhere.

My Little Eyes - Greek
Actually "matia mou" means "my eyes". "My little eyes" would be "mikra mou matia" .
There is also "the corner of my liver" (cigerimin kösesi) in Turkish. But probably the drawing of a liver wouldn't be so cute ^^
I suppose “sugar plum” or “pumpkin” are used some, but usually that’s seems too mushy...

In Slovak, some terms of endearment are "moje malé očičko" which translates to "my little eye". Or "môj poklad", which is "my treasure". My babička (grandma) used to call me these as a child. Another thing she sometimes said was "svetlo mojich očí", which is "light of my eyes"
A loving way to call someone in Catalan (language not featured in the article) is "bitxo", which means bug. "Mi media naranja" is typical in Spanish and is like saying "my other half" although it literally means "my half orange."
He forgot the "my little suicide bomber" love caption common in the Middle East.
