Who loves whom
We were talking about who loves whom.

We were talking about who loves whom.
"To love" should be assumed to be in its sense of eros.

Swahili, like English, tends to not really differentiate the definitions of love that often.

Re: Who loves whom
There are two options for a subject: "nous", which always means 1PL, or "on", which can mean 1PL in informal situations. The interrogative pronoun "qui" doesn't decline for case.
French
Nous parlions / On parlait de qui aime qui.
[nu paʁljɔ̃ ɔ̃ paʁlɛ d ki ɛm ki]

It's about the context if we know who loves whom or are wondering it.
The only way to express that in Vtain is to have a ditransitive verb 'X discusses Y doing verb to Z'.
In Vtain, auxiliaries tent to be normal verbs as well. The cause
