seviyorum= I'm loving/I love......
sewiyorum= I'm loving/I love......
The 'w' is sometimes put in but it should be 'v'
hope it helps.

'I am loving' is grammatically incorrect. It's a state verb so we never use present continuous. We always use present simple 'I love'

Thanks hobnob,So in Turkish how would we say 'I'm loving this holiday'? yani simdi su anda bu tatili seviyorum kullanmuyor muyuz?
bu tatili sevdim
bu tatili seviyorum
bu tatili sevecegim.
I suspect that these can be used no?

No, but i'm saying in English you wouldn't say 'i'm loving this holiday'. You'd say 'this holiday is great' or something like this as we cannot say 'i'm loving' and to say 'I love' suggests a long period of time. In Turkish you'd simply use present cont, so 'seviyorum' would be used or 'sevdim' if you are saying it towards the end of the holiday

And... I love that you noticed this 
English are so bad at their own grammar it makes me wonder how on earth they cope with other languages!

I'm one of those English teachers who doesn't have anything better to do than spot others' mistakes... Oh, and I seem to remember emailing McDonalds about that slogan!!

So we can't say,'I'm loving these working hours, but they are making me tired'(I don't think 'enjoying' these working hours sounds right)'I'm loving the gloves off approach to this problem'?(denoting 'the gloves off approach' right now for this specific problem)'I'm loving the fact you're not at home right now,as I can do as I please'?(if we say 'I love the fact your not home', doesn't this imply permanency?)'I'm a loving person'?'I'm loving these moments of intimacy between us'?(again this implies these moments of intimacy which may finish in the near future))'I said I didn't think I'd enjoy it when we got here, but now we're here I'm positively loving it!'?(this surely denotes that there was uncertainty, but that uncertainty has now finished)
I use these all the time, and the grammar police haven't caught me yet
