38° 48' 3.49" N Longitude: -9° 22' 41.74" W

The co-ordinates of where I am. Are you located on the 38th parallel? Is that what this means?

The 38th parallel north is a circle of latitude that is 38 degrees north of the Earth's equatorial plane. It crosses Europe, the Mediterranean Sea, Asia, the Pacific Ocean, North America, and the Atlantic Ocean. The 38th parallel north formed the border between North and South Korea prior to the Korean War.

At this latitude, the Sun is visible for 14 hours, 48 minutes during the summer solstice and 9 hours, 32 minutes during the winter solstice.

Based on the way it is written it makes no sense. Youcantbe on a north longitude

@Saadia1999 but you cant be on a north longitude, it is east or west. Latitudes are parallel
