Saudade (pronounced /sɐwˈðaðɨ/ or /sawˈdadi/) is a profound Portuguese term for a bittersweet, melancholic longing for an absent person, place, or time, often intertwined with affection and the knowledge that the object of desire may never return. It represents a “deep emotional state of nostalgic longing” for memories or things that are gone.
