Variances in language often make it somewhat difficult to really discuss a concept like this. What comes to mind for me are the variations on "hot". In English there is just HOT. In Spanish we have caliente, and picante - or fire hot vs spicy hot.
There are certainly different types of love, or different definitions of love. I was remembering earlier today my childhood bible studies discussions about the difference between agape, eros and philia. Loosely defined as philosophical/God love, passionate (or erotic) love, and fondness.
In addition to "types" of love, I have found that there are also varying degrees of love, or intensities, if you will. Just as there are varying degrees of "picante."
