SOUTH

What south means

The direction or compass point opposite to north, or a region, country, or part of a region lying in that direction.

Where the word comes from

From Old English "sūth," meaning the direction of the sun at midday. The word likely stems from Proto-Germanic "sunthaz," possibly related to the sun itself, since in the Northern Hemisphere the sun appears highest in the southern sky. The root may connect to proto-Indo-European words for sun, though the exact connection remains uncertain.
