The word home and house are used interchangeably. Most times, I also get confused on the usage of these words.
They might sound or look the same but they are very different.
A house is a temporary or permanent structure (wooden or concrete), usually a material structure constructed to give comfort. We all live in houses. A house has no emotional attachments.
In a home, you feel warm and relax. I have heard people say most times time 'No place like home'. A home is surrounded by meaningful and special things, our loved ones, family and friend add up to make a home. The word 'make yourself feel at home also comes to mind', means that anywhere can be a home depending on who is occupying it. It is our duty to create a home out of the wooden and sometimes concrete houses we build. A home can even be a country, state, etc.
Properties like happiness, love, warmth combine to make a home.
You can make a home out of a house. We can also turn a house to a home conducive for living. A house can be bought but a home cannot.
