northwestern [region/country/city]
Dažna klaida:
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.

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.
Sinonimai
northwesterly (More standard and frequent in weather reports and technical descriptions of wind and movement.)
Antonimai
southeastern (When describing winds or systems, indicates they come from the opposite direction, the southeast.)
