کجا بگم house? کجا home?

Hey Stephany

come on in.

welcome to my home,

house.

Home.

Which one should I use though?

Umm,

let’s take a look at one example.

This is Carl in 2009.

He lives in his flat all on his own.

Doesn’t care to wash the dishes,

or cleaning his place.

This is Carl in 2021.

he’s now married to.

hey!

This was just a house

“I” made it a home!

this is Ruth by the way.

Oh yea,

it was right on the tip of my tongue actually,

So, thanks to .

Ruth.

gotcha

The difference between home and house got clear.

Beg your pardon?

Still not clear?

you must be kidding me

I’m gonna say it this way

but just listen carefully this time, OK?

look,

when you point out to a building

and you say it is your house,

what you mean is a physical building;

but when you call it your home,

on the other hand

you mean this is a place where your family lives.

so it’s friendly, it’s warm

and you feel comfortable in it

Note:

you cannot use home

with article the.

Plus if you wanted to use home

with verbs such as: go or return

you don’t have to use it with prepositions to or at.

For example:

I wanna go home.

Another example:

He returned home last night.

see?

I didn’t use at or to.

clear?

Are you nodding or anything?

Let’s do something

I’m gonna add one test at the end of this video

you know!

just to make sure you got the point!

And write your answer down below

and let others know

I’m gonna correct it.

I’m gonna see you soon in another video.

probably

Bye!
