English term or phrase: to the west of (England)
Greetings,

In describing the geographical location of my country Wales, it is crucial that I explain that it is to the west of England i.e. outside England on the west side, but not, of course, in the west of England, which would incorrectly make Wales a part of England.

All the best, and many thanks,

Simon

agree  Balaban Cerit: This is the correct answer, even if some people use the expression "Türkiye'nin batısında" to describe the west region of Turkey. If it is really imperative that there be no misunderstanding, maybe we can use something like "west of the English border".
