In English what is the difference between HOUSE and HOME?Thanks in advance?

Question:

Answers:
A house is just a structure, home is "where the heart is" i.e. it's intangible; much like the difference between your brain and your mind.
Home is formal, house is familiar. Same difference as Father and Dad.
myself i generally refer to a house as the building and a home as the building being lived in by people
one and the same...this is my house..I am going home..
House is a builing which people can reside, it will become your home once u started to live in that , in other way house will become emotionally attached to you then it will become a home
I usually say the properties i have where i dont reside as house
A house is a dwelling place built for that purpose. A HOME, on the other hand, is a place (whether built or not) where a person feels a sense of belonging. Home is a place where you keep your things, where you have some sense of security, where you can have some kind of privacy from the outer world.

A house is not a human need, but a home is. Homeless people do not have houses, but they still are driven to create some semblance of a place to belong.

A home is not always a house (could be a cave or a cardboard box). A house is not always a home (people who live with others against their wishes will not consider their house to be "home).

Hope this answers your question. I teach this topic to 7th graders in FCS.

God Bless.

house - a building in which people live; residence for human beings.

home - the place in which one's domestic affections are centered.

"I live in a house. It is my home."
house is the place where you live, home is a house that's full of love for each member of the family
A house is a building made to be inhabitated by people, animals etc. But it doesn't always mean a one or two story structure. An apartment, townhouse or condo could be considered one as well.

A home is another story entirely. A home is the place where you feel most at peace. It can be someone else's property (like a friends house), a chair, store, restaurant or person. It is where you go when all else fails. It's a sanctuary for your soul. It can be a good friend or a city. A home is something you define as a person. It is whatever you want it to be.
