「家」と「故郷」の違いは何ですか。 Both means "Home", right? What are the main differences? I heard this word from a song by Natsukawa Rimi (ウンジュの原点(ふるさと). That's why I am thinking that ふるさと(故郷) is a poetic word or something like that...おしえてください。 Another question: what does the word ウンジュ mean from the name of the song? Is it a place? Here are the link to the video and lyrics, in case you want to hear the song too ;D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dge7nboEcGo http://www.uta-net.com/song/77890/ ありがとうございます。
