§Grammar and usage

Usage: The North Pole (the geographic pole) is not the same as the north magnetic pole, which a compass needle points to and which slowly moves over time.

Usage में North Pole (भौगोलिक ध्रुव) और north magnetic pole (उत्तरी चुंबकीय ध्रुव) एक नहीं हैं, कम्पास की सुई चुंबकीय ध्रुव की ओर संकेत करती है और वह समय के साथ धीरे-धीरे खिसकता रहता है।
