Cardinal directions (north, south, east, west) are the main directions on a compass rose, while ordinal directions (northeast, southeast, southwest, northwest) are the intermediate directions located between the cardinal directions. Ordinal directions provide more specific information about direction compared to cardinal directions.
Northeast, southeast, etc are ordinal directions. North, South, West, East are Cardinal directions.
