North and south are considered opposite directions because they represent the two poles of Earth's magnetic and geographic orientation. The Earth’s magnetic field has a north magnetic pole and a south magnetic pole, which are aligned with the planet’s geographic poles. This dichotomy is fundamental to navigation, where north typically indicates the direction toward the North Pole, while south leads towards the South Pole. As a result, they are used to define the cardinal directions on a compass, making them inherently oppositional.
North is the direction toward the North Pole or geographic North.
actually nort and north is similar to each other.. that's why the opposite is south or soerm. nort is not a word.... it's an impression on early times.
The wind that blows from the south towards the north is called a south wind. It moves in the opposite direction to the usual north wind.
Magnet does not stick to the opposite of the magnet because one side of the magnet is called south pole and another side is called north pole .And south pole is suppose to stick north to north and south to South
