    Morphology & Syntax document discusses compounding, which is forming new words by combining two or more existing words. The meaning of the new compounded word may be related to the combined words or completely different. Examples are given like "backbite", "chalkboard", and "dashboard". The document notes that the meaning and class of the new compounded word may change and not be the same as the original words, like "backbite" becoming a noun instead of combining a noun and verb. More examples are provided to illustrate how the meaning and class can change when words are compounded.

    Definition
    Compounding is the process of forming new words
    by combining two or more words in which the new
    word may maintain the meaning of the words that
    make it (compositional) or have a meaning that is far
    different from the original words (noncompositional).

    compound, forming a new word from a


    combination of two or more words in which
    the meaning of the new word can be much
    different from the words that make it up or it
    could be the meaning of the original words.
    Origin of Compounding
    1
    Back + bite = backbite
    Chalk + board = chalkboard
    Dash + board = dashboard Jail + bird = jailbird
    3
    Ear + phone = earphone Key + board = Keyboard
    Lady + finger = Ladyfinger
    Master + piece =
    2 Farm + house = Masterpiece
    farmhouse News + letter = Newsletter
    Gear + box = gearbox 4 Out + bound = Outbound
    Hair + dresser = Path + way = Pathway
    hairdresser
    Note :

    The meaning of the new word is not


    always based on the meaning of the word
    that forms it

    • Blueberries means blue berries


    • Blackbird is a type of bird (the name of a
    Example : bird species), not a black bird
    • Backbite means backbiting (not back
    bite)
    • Bittersweet can mean a mixture of sad
    and happy feelings, it can also mean a
    mixture of bitter and sweet tastes.
    To more clearly consider the following
    sample compounds:
    • noun – noun note + book → notebook
    Note : (noun)
    Keep in mind that new words • adjective – noun blue + berry →
    that are formed do not blueberry (noun)
    • verb – noun work + room → workroom
    always have the same type
    (noun)
    or class of words as the
    • noun – verb breast + feed →
    original words. breastfeed (verb)
    For example: the words back • adjective – verb high + light →
    (noun / adjective) and bite highlight (verb/noun)
    (verb) after being • verb – preposition break + up →
    compounded, the word class breakup (noun)
    changes to backbite (noun). • preposition – verb out + run → outrun
    (verb)
    • adjective – adjective bitter + sweet →
