North, South, East, and West are the four main "cardinal" directions. On a map, North is at the top, South at the bottom, West to the left, and East to the right. Every map has a Map Scale which relates distance on the map to the world.

On your computer, open Google Maps. Right-click the place or area on the map. This will open a pop-up window. You can find your latitude and longitude in decimal format at the top.

Sometimes voice directions aren't downloaded or must be updated on your phone or tablet. When this happens, you'll hear a chime instead of voice directions. Make sure you're connected to the internet. If you have a strong internet connection, voice directions will download faster.
