ETIMOLOGIA DELLA PAROLA COMPASS
From Old French compas, from compasser to measure, from Vulgar Latin compassāre (unattested) to pace out, ultimately from Latin passus step.
CHE SIGNIFICA COMPASS IN INGLESE
Bussola
Una bussola è uno strumento di navigazione che mostra le direzioni in un riferimento di riferimento stazionario rispetto alla superficie della Terra. Il quadro di riferimento definisce le quattro direzioni cardinali: nord, sud, est e ovest. Sono definite indicazioni intermedie. Di solito, un diagramma chiamato bussola rosa, che mostra le indicazioni, è contrassegnato sulla bussola. Quando la bussola è in uso, la rosa è allineata con le direzioni reali nella cornice di riferimento, per cui, ad esempio, il contrassegno "N" sulla rosa punta veramente a nord. Frequentemente, oltre alla rosa o talvolta al posto di essa, sulla bussola vengono visualizzati i contrassegni angoli in gradi. Nord corrisponde a zero gradi e gli angoli aumentano in senso orario, quindi l'est è 90 gradi, il sud è 180 e l'ovest è 270. Questi numeri consentono alla bussola di mostrare azimutte o cuscinetti, che sono comunemente riportati in questa notazione. La bussola magnetica fu inventata per la prima volta come un dispositivo per la divinazione già nella Dinastia Han cinese. La bussola è stata usata nella dinastia Song Dynasty Cina dai militari per la navigazione orienteering entro il 1040-1044 ed è stata utilizzata per la navigazione marittima entro il 1111 al 1117.
definizione di compass nel dizionario inglese
La prima definizione di bussola nel dizionario è uno strumento per trovare la direzione, di solito con un ago magnetizzato che indica il nord magnetico che oscilla liberamente su un perno. Un'altra definizione di bussola è anche chiamata: coppia di bussole, uno strumento utilizzato per disegnare cerchi, misurare distanze, ecc. Che consiste di due braccia, unite a un'estremità, un braccio del quale funge da perno o punto di riferimento stazionario, mentre l'altro è esteso o descrive un cerchio. La bussola è anche limiti o portata.
