/Sounds like "sow" + "DAH" (as in "dart") + "deh" (as in "debt")/
A Portuguese word adopted into Spanish describing a deep melancholy for something absent, a person, a place, a time that's gone. There's no perfect English translation because it captures an emotion that goes beyond simple nostalgia.
“I feel this deep longing for those summer days we'll never get back.”
“Saudade is missing someone even when you know they're not coming back.”
