| Assunto: | Re: in north of vs. in the north of |
| Mensagem: | Mensagem: Qual é a diferença de it's north of e it's in the north of Look at it this way: (it's north) The biggest city in our state is north of my town. (it's in the north of) The biggest city in our state, Bloomington, is in the north of the state. There are no large cities in the south of our state. We are a mostly agricultural region. My barn is north of my house. It's in the northern part of my property. The barn gives the house some protection from the cold winds that come from the north. I guess I was smart when I laid out the plans for building these two structures. I don't have any tall trees north of my house because I don't want the wind to ever blow them down and cause damage to the roof. All of our large trees are outside of a "radius of fall" that would let them damage a building. |
