Question
I’m visiting a Japanese friend’s home for dinner, and I want to compliment them on their beautiful house. How can I say “Your home is beautiful” in Japanese?

お宅（たく）は素敵（すてき）ですね。
O-taku wa suteki desu ne.
Your home is beautiful.
Complimenting someone’s home is a nice gesture and shows your appreciation for their hospitality. In this phrase, “o-taku” is a polite way to refer to someone’s house, and “suteki” means “beautiful” or “lovely”. The particle “ne” at the end is often used to seek agreement or emphasize your sincerity. Consider using this expression to make your host feel appreciated.
