links

left

Es beschreibt eine Richtung, die das Gegenteil von rechts ist.

The German word "links" primarily means "left" in terms of direction (opposite of right). It can also refer to left-leaning political beliefs. The word can function as both an adjective (describing something as on the left side) and as an adverb (indicating movement to the left).

In a broader context, "links" can be related to "link" in terms of connections, such as in networks or on the internet.

Similar words in German include "linksseitig" (left-sided) and "linkshändig" (left-handed). The key difference is that "links" is a general term for left, whereas "linksseitig" and "linkshändig" are more specific adjectives describing position and handedness, respectively.
