nostalgia
意味: A sentimental longing or affection for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal associations.
Nostalgia blends pleasure and sadness: the enjoyment of remembering is tinged with the knowledge that the past cannot be recovered. Originally a medical diagnosis describing homesickness, it now refers more broadly to any wistful yearning for former times. It is often used critically to suggest that the past is being idealised. Common collocations include 'wave of nostalgia,' 'tinged with nostalgia,' and 'nostalgia for.' The adjective is 'nostalgic.'
