喜樂美語
  1. 1住所、住處(較文雅或帶點幽默感的說法)

    A place where someone lives — a home. It's a more formal, literary, or old-fashioned word than 'home' or 'house,' so today people often use it in a joking or slightly fancy way to talk about their own home, like saying 'welcome to my humble abode.'

From the word’s history

From Middle English abod, from Old English, related to abidan 'to abide'.

源自古英文，與 ābīdan（abide「停留」）相關：停留之處。
