North
|
The word north is related to the Old High German nord, both descending from the Proto-Indo-European unit ner-, meaning "left" (or "under"). (Presumably a natural primitive description of its concept is "to the left of the rising sun".) Latin borealis is from Greek boreas "north wind, north", in mythology (according to Ovid) personified as the son of the river-god Strymon, and father of Calais and Zetes; septentrionalis is from septentriones, "the seven plow oxen", a name of Ursa Maior. Greek arktikos "northern" is named for the same constellation (c.f. Arctic). Other languages have sometimes more interesting derivations. For example, in Lezgian kefer can mean both 'disbelief' and 'north', since north of Muslim Lezgians there are areas inhabited by non-Muslim (until recently) Caucasian peoples, such as Avars and Chechens; as well as pagan Turkic peoples. In many languages of Mesoamerica, 'north' means also 'up'. From Wikipedia under the

My friend and I are leaving for basically our senior week at myrtle beach, we are going with my parents because they don't trust us enough to let us go to the beach by ourselves. Apparently the place we're staying at is in north myrtle beach, which I heard is full of older people and families. We were hoping to meet people like we did in virgina beach last year and find parties since its senior week, but if its full of families, then i feel like that might not be the case at all.
