That explanation is linked through 'the main words' below. I find that you understand words better when you look at the other words at the first words' bases ...
The word “Nostalgic” (Wistful, Sentimental Yearning for the Past) is built on ancient words that mean Homesick (Pain, Grief, Sickness (-algia) + "to Return Safely Home" (Food for a Journey, Approaches, Joins, Recover, Heal). #Nostalgia #Nostalgically
The word “Homage” is built on ancient words that refer to a Man who is a Reverent Vassal who shows Honor to his Lord.
The word “Retro” is taken from "Retro-Rockets" (the reversed rockets used to slow a shuttle on re-entry), and is built on ancient words that mean Backward.
