意思
To feel sadness because someone or something is absent.
文化背景
In Spain, 'echar de menos' is the standard. Using 'extrañar' might make people think you've been watching too many Mexican soap operas. In most of Latin America, 'extrañar' is much more common. 'Echar de menos' sounds very 'Peninsular' (from Spain). In Galicia, you might hear 'morriña,' a specific type of 'echar de menos' related to missing one's homeland.
The 'A' Rule
Always use 'a' before a person's name: 'Echo de menos a Juan'.
No 'the'
Do not say 'Echo de el menos'. It is always 'de menos'.
