The word "lief" or similar-sounding terms can have different meanings across languages.


In Dutch, means "sweet," "dear," or "lovely," often used to describe someone or something affectionate, kind, or endearing. For example, you might call a loved one "mijn lief" (my dear) or describe a child as "lief" for being sweet.


  • Afrikaans: "Lief" means "dear," "sweet," or "beloved," very similar to Dutch, as Afrikaans is derived from Dutch. Example: "My lief" (my dear).
