“沒有方向感”是什么感覺？

對于沒有方向感的人來說，東南西北都沒有意義，他們只知道左和右，而且，有的時候還可能把左右給搞反。

他們出門的時候，完全聽從導航的安排，哪怕路線是錯的，也得聽。因為別的路線，他們也不知道。

在英語里，他們是directionally-challenged people，在停車場找不到自己的車，也是有可能的。

The term directionally-challenged can be used to describe:

1. Someone who has difficulty determining right from left,

2. Someone who often confuses directions, and prefers visual aids,

3. Someone who has great difficulty reading maps and/or driving while listening to directions.

沒有方向感（directionally-challenged）多用來形容以下這三種人：

1. 分不清左右的人，

2. 分不清方向，需要視覺輔助指路的人，

3. 看不懂地圖、聽不懂導航的人。

如果你身邊也有這樣沒有方向感的人，那么他們對下面這些場景可能會覺得很熟悉。
