South
South is one of the cardinal directions or compass points. The direction is the opposite of north and is perpendicular to both west and east. Etymology The word ''south'' comes from Old English ''sūþ'', from earlier Proto-Germanic ''*sunþaz'' ("south"), possibly related to the same Proto-Indo-European root that the word ''sun'' derived from. Some languages describe south in the same way, from the fact that it is the direction of the sun at noon (in the Northern Hemisphere), like Latin meridies 'noon, south' (from medius 'middle' + dies 'day', ), while others describe south as the right-hand side of the rising sun, like Biblical Hebrew תֵּימָן teiman 'south' from יָמִין yamin 'right', Aramaic תַּימנַא taymna from יָמִין yamin 'right' and Syriac ܬܰܝܡܢܳܐ taymna from ܝܰܡܝܺܢܳܐ yamina (hence the name of Yemen, the land to the south/right of the Levant). South is sometimes abbreviated as S. Navigation By convention, the ''bottom or down ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

South (Heather Nova Album)
''South'' is the fourth studio album by Heather Nova. There were two versions of this album—the original release on December 11, 2001, and an American release on May 21, 2002. The US release contained one extra track, "Welcome", which also appeared on the 2005 album '' Redbird''. "Virus of the Mind" was released as a single in the United States. The album was recorded in London, New York, Sweden and Los Angeles and featured Bernard Butler on some of the tracks. For this album, Nova also recorded a contemporary-styled cover of the standard "Gloomy Sunday", a song originally made popular by Billie Holiday. In retrospect, Nova found the album to be far too polished and not entirely to her liking. She declared that her next album, ''Storm'', would be bare and would be the album she's always wanted to make. Track listing All songs by Heather Nova, except where noted. European release #"If I Saw You in a Movie" – 4:06; produced by Felix Tod #"Talk to Me" – 4:05; produced by Fel ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
