Why does the clock turn from left to right?  Why not turn from right to left?

 Clocks, one of our daily necessities!  Where is the home from the office!  We always look at the clock to get the right direction of time.  Ah, maybe I said a little wrong!  In the crowd of mobile and digital watches, this phenomenon is now rare. Now the cutting clock is decreasing.

 Whatever it is, we have all seen it more or less  But have you noticed one thing that is why the clock is always ticking?  Why not turn to the right?  What if it turns right?

 Let's know a little more about this

 We all know the clock in English is clock 8, But it is not really an English word. It is derived from a Latin word, look!  Later the Europeans turned this clock into a clock.  The watch is thought to have been designed about 800 years ago, originally by Europeans.  From that time till today, the clock has been ticking or traveling to the right.

 But the question is why?  Or why did they choose the right side?

 The answer is the idea of ​​the watch but not the Europeans. Originally, sundials were introduced in Egyptian civilization long before them, Which depended on nature and traveled from or to the right. Following that, the Europeans also chose the right side of their watch model.

 This is because Europe is located in the northern hemisphere of the world. Normally, the sun is tilted to the south. As a result, as the day progresses, the more the sun rises in the sky, the more the shadow of the bar on the clock moves to the right.  Based on this, the clockwise or right-to-right movement has been followed. Note that the sundial was a way to understand the time by looking at the different shapes of the shadows on the ground.  And since then, the practice of turning the clock or turning from right to left is still followed.

 There are different directions on the map  North South East West.  In fact, it should be said that the clockwise direction is not to the right or from the west to the east, Which is usually the direction of the sun's path.  However, it is tilted to the south in the countries of Europe. So from or to the right is caught.

 Interestingly, if the clock had not been invented in Europe but Australia or New Zealand, then the direction of the clock would have been determined by looking at the shadow of sunlight on the bar, where the clock would have rotated from right to left.  Because in all these countries the sun goes from west to east but tilts slightly to the north. As a result, the shadow fell from right to left.

 Now, if you want, you can make it from right to left instead of clockwise or counterclockwise.  When the time is right, There is no obstacle; however, internationally, the clock's right has been recognized.
