Orient has two common uses.

1. Referring to "The Orient"; the countries of Asia, esp. East Asia.

-"Recent conflict in the orient will have widespread economic consequences."

-"This oriental dish is extravagant; the sauce compliments the meat and adds a flavorful zest.


2. To adjust with relation to, or bring into due relation to surroundings.

-"After tumbling down the hill, reality was vertigo; it took me a moment to reorient myself."
-"I pulled out my compass, laying it onto the map, and oriented myself; I traced a finger over the map, using the tall spires surrounding me as landmarks in order to figure out my location.
