Talk:intercardinal direction

Relative directions and portmanteaus
Firstly, if we substitute the cardinals north/south and east/west with the relative front/back and left/right then would these also be intercardinals?
 * frontleft
 * frontright
 * backleft
 * backright

I'd also like to know if there are any evidence of portmanteaus made to cut down all of these to single syllable terms. For example
 * neast
 * nest
 * seast
 * sest

I reach a snag with the 2nd relative though due to overlap with existing.
 * feft
 * fight? fright? froight froght?
 * beft
 * bight

These would be valuable in describing octagons or hexagons.
 * You should use WT:LOP for this. S URJECTION ·talk·contr·log· 23:15, 30 August 2018 (UTC)
