茅ぼう舎しゃ

noun

thatched cottage; humble abode

Literary or poetic term for a small, simple thatched-roof house, often used humbly of one's own home. 'Hovel' is a possible but less common translation; the primary nuance is rustic simplicity rather than squalor.

• 彼かれは都と会かいを離はなれ、山やま里ざとの茅ぼう舎しゃで静しずかに暮くらしている。

  He left the city and lives quietly in a thatched cottage in the mountains.

• どうぞ私わたしの茅ぼう舎しゃへお立たち寄よりください。

  Please stop by my humble cottage.
