أَحْبُّ — dearer. This is a comparison adjective on the 'more X' pattern, meaning 'dearer / more beloved', used to rank one thing above another. Arabic forms 'more beloved' with a single fixed mold rather than adding a separate 'more'. It leans on the 'to me' and 'than' that follow to complete the comparison.
