Here's a breakdown of what each word means:
* Ek: I
* vir: for
* lief: love (adjective)
* jou: you
It's likely that the person meant to say one of the following:
* Ek is lief vir jou: I love you (This is the correct way to say "I love you" in Afrikaans)
* Ek lief jou: I love you (This is a more informal and less common way to say "I love you" in Afrikaans)
If you heard this phrase, it's best to clarify what the person meant to say.
