The Sequence of “East, West, South, North”
The Sequence of “East, West, South, North”
Abstract:
EAST, WEST, SOUTH, NORTH are the four basic locality words, but few people investigate into the sequence of the four words when they use them. For example, Chinese people always say”东西南北”or”东南西北”,instead of “北西南东” or something else. Now that all the four words are locality words, why there are strict rules for the sequence.

This thought was accepted by people widely, as a result, people said the four words as the sequence of “east, south, west, north”.
