Ok, I see what you want now.

With out graphics.

East is at a horizontal position.
East South East would be at a 45 degree down angle from there.

Oh... It seemed like East was doubled there, but who am i to say that. Thank you for your reply!

Well,
Haveing a very directional background.
If I was told SSW?
I could see going South South West.
Which is a bit more then South West South.

It is easy if you look at a compass or such.
Anything you learn?
It's good!!

NNE is 22.5°, ENE is 67.5°, ESE is 112.5°, SSE is 137.5°, SSW is 202.5°, WSW 237.5°, WNW is 292.5° and NNW is 337.5°. No such thing as South west south as far as I'm aware, I guess you mean West South West.

Not to nitpick but SE would be a 45 degree angle from there. ESE would be about 112 degrees, only 22 degrees deviation.

Also there is no SWS, that would be SSW
