What are Compound Words?

Compound words are made by joining two or more words; the combination creates a new word. They can be formed using two nouns, e.g. basketball, two non-nouns, e.g. blowup, or a noun and non-noun, e.g. sunrise. It is important to note that the words do not always keep their original meaning, e.g. breakfast. Our list of compound words contains 500 words.

There are three types of compound words:

• Closed compound words, e.g., football, peanut,
• Open compound words, e.g., cell phone, high school, and
• Hyphenated compound words, e.g., in-depth, runner-up.

Compound Nouns – Rajen Jani

Compound Nouns [8:44]

When two or more words form a single word, then that word is known as a compound word or simply a compound. For example: “rain + fall = rainfall”.

A compound word that functions as a noun is known as a compound noun.
For example:
ice cream, football, mother-in-law

1.The meaning of the compound noun is usually different from the meaning of the words that form it. For example:
foot + ball = football
He plays football.
Here, the meaning of the compound noun “football” is a game, which is different from the meanings of either “foot” or “ball”.

2.Compound nouns can be formed in many different ways. The most common ways are:

noun + noun: (ice + cream = ice cream)
He loves ice cream.

adjective + noun: (black + board = blackboard)
Please wipe the blackboard.

verb + noun: (break + fast = breakfast)
She ate her breakfast quietly.

3.Generally, one of the words in a compound noun is a noun, but it is not necessary. For example:
high + light = highlight
adjective + verb = compound noun
Visiting the beach was the highlight of the day.

Note: “highlight” functions as a noun, therefore it is a compound noun. Any compound word functioning as a noun is a compound noun.

4.A compound noun can be written:

• with space (post office, fire engine, Prime Minister)
• without space (bookcase, bedroom, toothbrush)
• with hyphen (check-out, mother-in-law)

Compound nouns that are written with spaces are known as open or spaced compound nouns.

Compound nouns that are written without spaces are known as closed or solid compound nouns.

Compound nouns that are written with hyphens are known as hyphenated compound nouns.

Open or spaced compound noun examples:
post office, fire engine, police station, bottle opener, Prime Minister, full moon, New Year’s Day, bus stop, washing machine, swimming pool, distance learning, lawn tennis, ice cream, living room, dinner table, coffee mug, real estate, water tank, eye shadow

Closed or solid compound noun examples:
snowflake, wallpaper, birdcage, bookcase, bathroom, windscreen, housewife, football, lawsuit, software, breakfast, sunrise, haircut, underworld, doorknob, Superman, bookstore, notebook, waistcoat, fireman, online, girlfriend, motorcycle, passerby, toothbrush

Hyphenated compound noun examples:
lamp-post, air-conditioning, window-cleaner, check-in, son-in-law, fire-fighter, six-pack, fire-fly, train-spotting, tee-shirt, take-off, dry-cleaning, go-between, good-for-nothing, grown-up, higher-up, brother-in-law, sisters-in-law, great-grandfather

5. Compound nouns that are normally written as two words, may be hyphenated to remove ambiguity or when they have a modifier.
For example:
The camera had a colour filter.
(normally written)
The camera had a colour-filter.
(hyphenated, to remove ambiguity)
The camera had a sepia colour-filter.
(hyphenated, as it has a modifier “sepia”)

6.A compound noun that is normally written as one word, may be split into separate component words, and then hyphenated with the first word, if a modifier applies to the first word only.
He is a metalworker.
He is a sheet-metal worker.
(split into “metal worker” and hyphenated with “sheet”)

7.Two separate but equally important nouns joined with “and” may be hyphenated, to form a hyphenated compound noun.
He is a writer and an editor.
(nouns: writer, editor)
He is a writer-editor.
(hyphenated compound noun)

8.The plural of a compound noun is formed when the last part has a plural ending. For example:
Singular: The town has one car park.
Plural: The town has three car parks.

Note: With compounds like father-in-law, sister-in-law, etc., the first part has a plural ending. For example:
I have three sisters-in-law.
Not: I have three sister-in-laws.

9.When pronouncing compound nouns, the spoken stress is generally on the first part.
BEDroom, ONline, SISter-in-law, CHECK-out, WEBsite, DOORbell, CAR park
Sometimes, especially with titles and proper nouns, the spoken stress is on the second part.
Prime MINister, Mount EVerest, New YORK, Mr. ROBert, Miss JUlia

10.In some instances, the same compound noun may be written as an open, a closed or a hyphenated compound noun.
For example:
“drop down, dropdown, drop-down”
“container ship, containership, container-ship”
“particle board, particleboard, particle-board”

There is no hard-and-fast rule that a compound noun should be written as an open, a closed or a hyphenated compound noun. Usage differs in the UK and the US. It may also depend on the choice of the writer.

Consulting a dictionary is a good way to discover how the compound noun is normally written.

English hyphen - Wall Street English

The hyphen (-) is a unique punctuation mark because it is used in both spelling and punctuation.

In spelling, it is used as an inseparable part of the word itself. In punctuation, in certain phrases, where its use may depend on the order of the words in the sentence.

A hyphen is generally used to link words or parts of words together, showing the relationship between them.

• Attention. Do not confuse the hyphen (-) with the various types of dashes (–, ―, —), which are longer and are used to indicate pauses and additions in a sentence.

The use of a hyphen in spelling

1. Relationship between parts of compound nouns, verbs and adjectives

Compound words consist of two or more parts that are connected and together denote one concept. These can be nouns, verbs or adjectives.

There are three types of compound words:

• Open words are written in separate words
• Hyphen - using two or more hyphens
• Closed are written in one word

In this topic, we are interested in hyphenated compound nouns / hyphenated compound words.

Examples of hyphenated compound words:

• Adjectives: clear-cut / clear, long-term / long-term, two-way / reversible (movement), water-resistant / waterproof
• Verbs: to cold-shoulder / to show indifference, to follow-through / live up to expectations

Guessing how to spell a compound word is difficult. Only a good dictionary can help here. Moreover, the language is constantly changing, and these words are also being modified. As a general rule, older words are more likely to be spelled together. Hyphenated compound words usually appear in an intermediate step.

If one part of the compound is a letter, it is usually open or hyphenated. The word email / e-mail is an exception, which began to be written together due to widespread and frequent use.

Examples of open compound words with a letter: F distribution / Fisher distribution, V neck / V-neck, X chromosome / X chromosome.

Examples of hyphenated compound words: H -bomb / hydrogen bomb

• Words borrowed from foreign languages, especially Latin, are written without a hyphen: a priori / a priori, post hoc / post factum, vice versa versa.
• The following words are often misspelled with a hyphen: more or less / more or less, ongoing / ongoing, under way / ongoing.

2. Associating a prefix or suffix with a word

Most prefixes and suffixes are attached to the root word without a hyphen. In some cases two spellings are allowed ( nonaggressive /non -aggressive / non-aggressive, infra -red /infrared /infra-red), but the current trend is to omit the hyphen.

A hyphen must be written in the following cases:

• After the prefixes all -, ex -, quasi - and self - . When self is the root word, no hyphen is used.

A ll -inclusive / all inclusive, ex -husband / ex-husband, self -esteem / self-esteem

selfishness 5 / 9002 0014 selfless / selfless

• Before the suffixes –elect, -odd and -free .

The president-elect thirty-odd students sugar-free

If the root word is a number.

Pre-1900s / pre-1900s, under-18s / pre-18s

• If the root word is capitalized.

Pre -Columbian / pre-Columbian (epoch), pre -Reformation / before Reformation, Buddha -like / similar to Buddha 9136

Incorrect: antiintelectual, shellike, multititled, intraarterial

Correct: anti-intellectual / anti-intellectual, shell-like / shell-like (shell), intra-arterial / intra-arterial

• If the word would have a different meaning without a hyphen.

The star football player has resigned. / Football star retired.

The star football player has re -signed . / Football star extended the contract (continues to work)

• If without a hyphen it is difficult to understand the meaning of the word or it can get a different meaning.

Coinventor can be read as coin ventor / coin inventor, so it is better to write co -inventor / co-inventor.

• If parts of a compound word are not normally used together.

Common compound words: worldwide / worldwide, clockwise / clockwise

Unusual: community -wide / community wide, two -thirds / two and two thirds

• If the fraction contains a two-word number, hyphenate only that number, as more hyphens can make the meaning of the fraction unclear.

Wrong: Forty -five -HundredTHS

Correct: Forty -five HundredTHS / Fi -Five Five Soil (0,45)

9000 3 , denoting shades of colors, are written with a hyphen.
