Hiraeth Project Discussion [Category: Hiraeth]:
Hiraeth, hiraeth!, What does Hiraeth mean. This is the first time I hear this word and as I speak another language which is French, the first thing I usually do when I don’t understand a new word in English is to relate it to French. This time, it does not help so the second step is to research it with some sources which are dictionary, google and others. After searching this word on google, this is the answer I found according to wikipedia ” The University of Wales, Lampeter attempts to define it as homesickness tinged with grief or sadness over the lost or departed. It is a mix of longing, yearning, nostalgia, wistfulness, or an earnest desire[2] for the Wales of the past." From my understanding the word”Hiraeth” means a place you would like to go back to but you can’t, it is also a lost of a precious time in your life. If I will write a topic about the word Hiraeth, it will be about the year I lost my grandfather or grandmother also about the time me and some of my friends used to study together after class or in the weekend also when we used to play soccer together and usually go to play with other team.
