direction between north and east
The direction halfway between north and east.
รูปแบบการใช้:
to the northeast (of [a place])
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes confuse "northeast" with "northwest" because both are long words starting with "north". Remember that "east" is on the right side of most maps, so "northeast" is between north and the right side.
