I hope I am asking this right
what is the diference between me hace falta and yo necisito?
2 Answers
They work in nearly the same way as their English counterparts - 'necessitar' = to need, whereas 'hacer falta' = 'to lack' or 'to be missing'.
They can overlap a bit
eg:
Me hace falta comprar pan, leche y huevos = I need to buy some bread, milk and eggs
But often they're not interchangeable:
ie: you can need something you already have (necesitar) in which case hacer falta wouldn't work:
No, no te puedo prestar mi vestido. Lo necesito.
No I can't lend you my dress, I need it.
And vice versa you can lack something (hacer falta) without needing it.
El perro le hace falta su collar. The dog is missing its collar.
Me hace falta means that you lack something or are incomplete without something. So to me this is a stronger statement than "I need".
I would say "te necesito". I need you. The pronoun is missing in your statement and the yo is not needed.
