자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes write "south east" as two words. In modern English, the direction is written as one word: "southeast". Use a capital letter only when it is part of a proper name or a named region, for example, "the Southeast" of the U.S.

In the southeast part of a place, or pointing toward that part.

the southeast [part/area/corner] of [a place]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes use "south" + "east" instead of the adjective "southeast" (e.g., saying "the south east part" instead of "the southeast part"). Use "southeast" as one word when it directly describes a noun ("southeast corner").
유의어

3
toward the southeast direction
Going or pointing toward the southeast.
사용 패턴：
to move [southeast] from [a place]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes use "to the southeast" when "southeast" alone as an adverb would be more natural (e.g., "The road goes southeast," not "The road goes to the southeast" in many contexts). Both can be correct, but the shorter adverb form is common with verbs of movement like "go" and "head."
유의어
southeasterly (A bit more formal or technical, often used in weather reports (e.g., "moving southeasterly").)
반의어
northwest (As an adverb (head northwest), it indicates movement in the opposite direction.)

southeastern region of a country
The southeast part of a country or big area, spoken about as one region, usually written as "the Southeast".
사용 패턴：
the Southeast of [a country]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes forget to capitalize "Southeast" when it refers to a well-known region (for example, "the Southeast" of the U.S.) and not just a general direction. Use "the southeast" (lowercase) for a general part of a place, but "the Southeast" (capitalized) for a recognized region.
유의어
the southeastern region (More formal and explicit; makes it clear that a sub‑region of a country or area is meant.)
반의어
the Northwest (In a similar regional sense, it refers to the opposite part of a country or area.)
