Located in or to one's own house.
زمینه فرهنگی
The British often use 'at home' to describe a specific type of social invitation, historically called an 'At Home' day, where guests could drop by without a formal appointment. In the US, 'at home' is heavily associated with the 'work-from-home' (WFH) movement, and being 'at home' is often seen as a luxury of the modern digital economy. While the English 'at home' implies relaxation, in Japan, being 'at home' (uchi) involves specific social duties and hierarchies that differ from 'outside' (soto) behavior. Hospitality is paramount; telling a guest to 'make yourself at home' is often followed by offering food and drink immediately, as it is a core cultural value.
