Definition
俺家 is a dialectal noun common in northern Mandarin, especially in Shandong and northeastern varieties. It literally means 'my family' or 'my home', equivalent to standard 我家. In colloquial speech, it can also be used as a first-person pronoun, similar to 我, but that usage is less formal and highly regional. As a noun, it always refers to one's own family or household.
