Home: A curious word with no synonym. I mean - home, it has an internal resonance, it confers a sense of belonging, comfort, place.

Yet we've replaced it largely with words like "Apartment" and "House" - words that describe the style of our accommodation, but not our intrinsic relationship with it. An "apartment", "duplex", "condo", "house", these are places where we live, but they confer no warmth or intimacy.

Searching I've concluded that there seems to be no synonym for it.

Consider Love. There are a wide variety of synonyms, it's gradients, there's fondness, affection, like, limerence, crush - all implying some shade of love. 

But there's no place - or synonym - for Home.
