I need help with English language

If we say

I love Aevann more than you

Does that mean

I love Aevann more than I love you

or

I love Aevann more than you love him

Maybe I'm stupid but I can't figure it out which one it is, English isn't my native language and in my language there is clear difference between subject "you" and object "you".

THE KRAUT TRIES TO FIND LOGIC AND ORDER IN PERFIDIOUS ALBION'S TONGUE

and he fails...

Just think at the ambiguous -s at the end of a word, especially in spoken bong, that has like 10e3 different meanings

  1. Plural formation
  2. Third-person singular present verbs
  3. Sometimes etymologically in possessive lemmas and adverbs.

#3 doesn't really parse as an affix for most people (and it's largely non-productive in both cases, best I can tell). #2 is the fault of the vikings (Old Norse btfo), and without it we'd have lost all regular inflection in the present tense by now. Who needs inflection when you can use auxiliary verbs and word order to resolve ambiguity.
