Significado
Feeling a longing for one's home.
Contexto cultural
Homesickness is often expressed through food. The phrase 'thèm cơm mẹ nấu' (craving mom's cooking) is a synonym for 'nhớ nhà'. For 'Việt Kiều' (overseas Vietnamese), 'nhớ nhà' can refer to a longing for the entire country of Vietnam, not just a specific house. There is a massive social pressure to return home for Tet. If you can't, you are expected to feel 'nhớ nhà' and call your family. Migrant workers in cities like Saigon often use 'nhớ nhà' to refer to their rural 'quê' (hometown).
