in or from the northwest part
in, from, or about the northwest part of a place
用法パターン：
northwestern [region/country/city]
よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes confuse 'northwestern' with the phrase 'northwest of'. Use 'northwestern' before a noun to describe a part of something (e.g. 'northwestern Germany'), but use 'northwest of' with another place as a reference (e.g. 'The town is northwest of Berlin'). Another issue is dropping the final '-ern' and saying *'northwest part' when a single adjective is needed; both 'northwest part' and 'northwestern part' are possible, but before many nouns like 'region' or 'province', 'northwestern' sounds more natural.

用法パターン：

よくある間違い：
Learners may confuse 'northwestern wind' with 'wind to the northwest'. 'Northwestern wind' means the wind comes from the northwest, not that it is blowing toward the northwest. In weather English, the named direction is where the wind starts, not where it goes.
類義語
northwesterly (More standard and frequent in weather reports and technical descriptions of wind and movement.)
対義語
southeastern (When describing winds or systems, indicates they come from the opposite direction, the southeast.)
