Answer

the word "hug" in English is a relatively "safe" word. When you say hug, do you mean hug like hugging your mother, your teddy bear, etc. or...maybe something more...mature? "Yakap" might be a good equivalent to hug. "Hagkan" is a hug with smoochies...and then there are other words which i can share with you the moment you turn 18, hehe.

Answer

hi! =)
this is too formal to say.. 
'NAIS KONG MAHAGKAN KA'
'NAIS KONG MAYAKAP KA'

so we usually say it like this: 
'SANA MAYAKAP KITA'
