kompas

a device with a needle that always points to the north, used to find direction

What is a "compass"?

A compass is a small device used to show direction. It consists of a magnetic needle that always points to the Earth's magnetic north. Compasses are commonly used for navigation, helping people find their way when traveling in unfamiliar areas. The device typically has a circular dial marked with the four main directions—north, south, east, and west—and sometimes additional markings for more precise directions. Compasses are used in activities like hiking, boating, and map reading to determine orientation and guide movement.
