Meaning of nostalgia #2 (permalink) Mon Apr 23, 2007 11:57 am   Meaning of nostalgia
 

Hi,

You have given a good idea of the meaning. 'Nostalgia' is a regret at no longer having something that was in the past, which you were very fond of. You can have a feeling of nostalgia for a time in your life (in the past) when you were happy and contented.
