О нас говорят, Любимец

Russian to English Other Livestock / Animal Husbandry How can you translate APE
Как можно написать о нас говорят на английском. То есть отзывы в соц сетях.
Есть ли слово кроме pet, которое может выразить любимец более точно?

Guys, I get a feeling these are two separate words/phrases that are not connected in a sentence. That is, "Любимец" is NOT an address (a la 'Corbin, my man!') at all!
Boris Shapiro Jan 7, 2021:
А, я, кажется, понял. Аскер решил залепить вопрос 2-в-1, и "о нас говорят" и "Любимец" вообще не являются частями одного предложения. Тю.
Alexandra Shapovalova Jan 7, 2021:
Если речь идет о животном, то pet. Мы же не переводим дословно, мы переводим идиому на идиому. Для "любимца"-человека можно искать варианты типа sweetheart. Но животное - это pet. Причем, скорее мы на русском перенесем "пет" на человека, которого не любим (если это олбанский), чем англы используют наш руссифицированный вариант.

Не понимаю Можно контекст? К кому идёт обращение? Текст сайта - это типа роман в письмах? Диалог с выдуманным четвероногим другом?

We are getting publicity, my lovely

https://www.marketingdonut.co.uk/pr/pr-opportunities/ten-way...

Media coverage is a blessing for small businesses - as your profile goes up, so will your sales. However, marketing campaigns can be costly. Free publicity is a great way to increase the profile of your small business. While traditional print media still has clout, in a world of "viral" marketing and social media, what other options are out there?
Peer comment(s):

agree David Knowles : Yes, I think this is a good option - could be "pet" (as the asker suggested) or "love" as well as "lovely"

People are talking about us, sweetie. (или sweetheart)

Другие переводы слова "любимец" звучат очень устаревшими на английском. Лучше всего подходят "sweetie" или вариант слова "dear" (dearest, my dear, etc.).
