What's the difference between いえ and うち?


Apparently, according to my textbook, いえ can be 家 in Kanji. But うち can't.




家 - Refers to a physical house or home (i.e., the building itself)

うち - Describes the meta-physical 'house' or 'home'




家 - Refers to a physical house or home (i.e., the building itself)
