Call me Huismus

 

There are always lovely new things to learn.  


Today at Facebook someone asked, "What do you call a person who loves being at home rather than being out socialising?"

Being Facebook, the comments, of course, ranged from sweet, to funny, to snide.


One person's answer jumped out at me.  I wish I had copied it, but basically she said she's Dutch and the word "huismus"  is often used.  Literally translated, it means "house sparrow."


Much nicer sounding than hermit, huh?!
