According to Wikipedia:
"Love-bites or hickeys are a temporary mark or bruise on one's skin resulting from kissing or sucking (not necessarily biting) forcefully enough to burst blood vessels beneath the skin. They could also be called 'love-marks','passion marks', 'slag tags' or 'tramp stamps', since actual biting is usually not involved, but this usage is not widespread."
There is a good picture of one associated with the article at:

a hickie is a mark on the skin that looks like a dark bruise. You give people hickies by sucking on the one area of skin. The suction applied to the skin causes the blood to come to the surface and create a bruise like apprance (purple coloration).

It's a mark most likely on the neck made from the sucking of another person to show affection.

A hickey is a red mark on the skin, generally the neck, left after kissing, sucking, nibbling, etc. It's generally considered embarrassing to have one. Hope that helps you!

Ever on account that i used to be little and til this present day I've continuously referred to as my mum "Mummy" and my dad "Daddy". Just on account that they not ever replied to "mum"/"dad". And it is continuously caught, I consider. Same with my siblings, too. I swear whenever my mom calls me at paintings, and that i reply pronouncing "hello, mummy", I get essentially the most strangest appears from my paintings colleagues. They continuously uncover that hilarious and typically take the mic. And I can surely see why it is humorous lol But, it is not ever transformed, and I doubt it is going to. Mum and Dad will continuously be Mummy and Daddy. And more often than not on account that they would possibly not reply to whatever else from their youngsters! : )

It is when someone sucks on your skin and the blood rushes to the surface and bruises you.

It's a red-mark on your body from someone else sucking on your skin. You get it from making out (or during making out, I should say) and it's usually a sign of pride among men. I don't know what women think of it...
EDIT: ...and thanks to Lizzie for clearing up what women think of it. :)
