Most helpful.

Great lesson. 

In my experience 对面 is a kind of difficult concept - Changye and I discussed this recently at length on another board. Your explanation as 'across' neatly sums it up.  When it is 'across the road' no problems. But 'across' can be a long way away!  

At the risk of confusing poddies, where I live the street naming works differently to your explanation along the lines that you have Yan'an Xi and Yan'an Zhong because the streets are 'broken up'.  That is one way they work but not the only way.  

Where I live you have 延安南路 running east-west, crossing 延安东路. 延安北路 also runs east-west but crosses no other Yan'an streets. 延安西路 runs north-south parallel to 延安东路 and crosses no other Yan'an streets.  延安街 is another separate short street in the area that crosses  延安东路.  

Some of these are broken up along their length as you suggest in the podcast. So 延安东路 has 北，中 sections.     

In the same city we have 人民西路，人民中路， 人民东路 running as a continuous street, broken up along their length as you say in the podcast.    

BTW, our numbers get higher from south to north.

路盲是什么意思， 是方向感的意思吗？ 这个词对我的词典没有了，找不到了。 我认为路盲是犹如你是盲的意思。明白吗？ - 不好意思，我的中文写不清楚。 

路盲是方向感很差的人，不记得走过的路，路多了，就很容易迷路。

apparently means "no sense of direction"

谢谢你们。路盲不在我的现代汉语词典，很奇怪啊！是不是新的词？  

Yes, 路盲 lùmáng does imply "no sense of direction". You can also say 没有方向感/méi yǒu fāng xiàng gǎn/, which literally means "no sense of direction".

Yes, 路盲 is a word coined in recent years. It's widely used. Similar words include 电脑盲/diàn nǎo máng/computer illiterate.
