Is it Southeast or South-East?

I always though it was more correct to write it as South-East, at least it seems more logical to me that way, doesn't it?

Writing it as Southeast just bothers me. It's placing too much emphasis on the South part, even though it's even between South and East, hence, East should also be capitalized.. and the hyphen seems to illustrate the equivalency of the word.. it looks more like an equation, visually. Also, Southeast might not be pronounced correctly or understood that it's supposed to be pronounced "South-East", with a very subtle pause in between the words. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nkatsaras (talkcontribs) 19:51 January 26, 2006.
