In French, "je t'aime" directly translates to "I love you" where "je" means "I," "t'" is a contracted form of "te" which means "you," and "aime" means "love." Saying "j'aime toi" would be grammatically incorrect in French as "toi" is already implied by the use of the direct object pronoun "te" in the verb "aime."
