"Perbatasannya ada di arah utara Anda."

Translation: The border is to your north.

[tsuj1g1r1]

Isn't the point of cardinal directions that they don't change from one person to another. You can have "your own right", but North is everybody's at the same time.

[joeldipops]

Not at all. If I am in Japan and you are in Indonesia, I can say "The Philippines are to your North, but to my South.

[tsuj1g1r1]

D'oh! Kamu tentunya benar, saya harus memikir lebih. Terima kasih!

Reminder:

• The prefix pe- and the affix -an are used to form nouns

• Perbatasan means border

• The root is batas (verb) which means to limit

• Other words with this root: keterbatasan (limitations), batasan (boundary)

‘The border is to your north’ would seem better.
