Are there any dialects where direction is pronounced as ? Or is my idiolect just insane? 128.192.98.201 20:38, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
Could anyone please add a more precise description about where the word is pronounced as IPA(key): /dəˈɹɛk.ʃən/, /dɪˈɹɛk.ʃən/, /daɪˈɹɛk.ʃən/? Thank you — 09:32, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
On https://www.criticalthreats.org/analysis/ukraine-invasion-updates I read the text:
”Ukrainian military officials reported that Russian forces are preparing to withdraw artillery units from unspecified areas on the western bank of the Dnipro River to possibly reinforce other directions.”
The context gives me the impression that in the quoted text the word “direction” carries a meaning similar to “place” or “area” or “location”. If that is impression is correct, an addition to the list of meanings may be in order, since that meaning is not listed yet. Who can help out?Redav (talk) 10:46, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
