Oh, and the joke you made about "three buns" (the one that earned you a playful smack in the hindquarters from your W had me ROTFLOL It was so silly and so ... human. I really wish the best for you.
Ha! I had forgotten about that, it was so much like the "old days" And thank you!

The quiz she took said her LL was physical touching, even though I thought she responded best to acts of service, but now she's responding to words of appreciation. Maybe W is multilingual in many of the "romantic languages"!
Absolutely, most people do respond to more than one LL. PT is probably the toughest PLL to "fill" when DB'ing, so usually in that case it's better to use other LL's anyway.
One takeaway I had from the book was that our spouses respond more favorably to some LL's than others, but that we should still show love in the other languages as well. It's just that they may not respond as strongly in their lesser LL's. "Gifts" ranked low for my W, but that doesn't mean she doesn't like getting gifts, it just means it doesn't have as big an impact on her as WoA.
And speaking of gifts, I never understood why my wife didn't respond more favorably over the years to what I considered to be really thoughtful gifts. I would carefully watch her for her reactions and I was almost always disappointed. It wasn't until I read 5LL that I realized that I just assumed everyone had the same PLL as me and I expected them to be as enthusiastic about it as me.
It was so silly and so ... human. I really wish the best for you.
