Definition
North-northwest, a compass direction halfway between north and northwest, at 337.5 degrees.
Etymology
Abbreviation of 'north-northwest', combining the cardinal direction 'north' with the ordinal direction 'northwest'. Standard nautical and aviation terminology developed in the age of exploration.
Kelly Says
This precise directional system divides the compass into 32 points, each separated by 11.25 degrees - a level of accuracy that helped sailors navigate oceans centuries before GPS. The abbreviation saves crucial space on maps and charts.
