    Hello, I like to know what is the difference between these two sentences in term of its meaning and grammar.

John loves Marry
John does love Marry


Thank you.

The second one is more emphatic. It sounds like someone has said that John doesn't love Mary (usually has only one R) and the speaker is setting the record straight.
