The cardinal directions are north, east, south, and west.

Northwest, Northeast, Southwest, and so on are the primary intercardinal directions, or Ordinal directions. As you might have guessed, north by northeast (NNE), south by southwest (SSW), and so on, are the Secondary intercardinal (or Ordinal) directions.
