The trade winds are the pattern of easterly surface winds found in the tropics near the equator. The trade winds blow predominantly from the northeast and from the southeast. The trade winds act as the steering flow for tropical storms that form over the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans that make landfall in North America, Southeast Asia, and India.
The Trade Winds are in the lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere. The Trade Winds blow near the equator. They are so called as trade in the days of sail relied upon these winds.
They were named the trade winds at a time when trade, or commerce, was conducted largely by sailing vessels that required wind in order to travel. The trade winds were used by sailing ships engaged in trade.
The winds that blow from east to west between the tropics and the equator are called trade winds. They are caused by the rotation of the Earth and the pressure differences between the equator and the poles. Trade winds are important for sailing and aviation routes.
The winds of commerce refer to the prevailing trade winds that historically facilitated maritime trade routes by providing consistent and favorable winds for sailing ships. These winds enabled faster and more predictable travel for merchants and explorers, leading to the establishment of global trade networks and the exchange of goods and ideas between different regions.
Trade winds blow from east to west while the westerlies blow from west to east. Trade winds blow near the equator whereas the westerlies blow in the middle latitudes.
You mean trade winds. And they are winds that normally blow in the same direction on a regular basis.

No. The trade winds are in the tropics.
Winds that provide a dependable route for trade are typically called trade winds. These winds blow consistently in one direction, making them advantageous for sailors and merchants to navigate trade routes. Trade winds helped facilitate global trade and exploration throughout history.
Trade winds are found in the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) which is one term used when talking about trade winds. Low level trade winds near the equator are also reffered to as easterlies. In the Northern Hemisphere, the trade winds blow from the northeast and are known as the Northeast Trade Winds; in the Southern Hemisphere, the winds blow from the southeast and are called the Southeast Trade Winds. So it depends what you are looking for here...
what is origin name of trade winds
Trade Winds
The Answer Is NOT trade winds
Whe trading between continents was done by sailing ships the captain quickly figured out that there were places and times where they'd "always" get a good tailwind that made the trip fast and easy. As those trips were done to trade the favourable winds were called trade winds.
