How do you say I miss you in Levantine Arabic?

There are two common ways to say I miss you in Levantine dialect: Mishtaaqlak and Shtaqtellak. Mishtaqlaak means I am missing you and Shtaqtellak I missed you.

Mishtaqlak

When a man is speaking to a man	مِشْتاقْلَك	Mishtaaqlak
When a man is speaking to a woman	مِشْتاقْلِك	Mishtaaqlek
When a man is speaking to a group	مِشْتاقِلْكُم	Mishtaaqilkom

When a woman is speaking to a woman	مِشْتاقِتْلِك	Mishtaqitlek
When a woman is speaking to a group	مِشْتاقِتِلْكُم	Mishtaqitilkom
