Explanation:

Compounds are written sometimes as one word (sunglasses), sometimes as two hyphenated words (life-threatening), and sometimes as two separate words (football stadium). Compounding is the most common type of word-formation in English.

Types of Compounds

Compounding exists in several different forms and parts of speech, including the following:

Compound Adjective

Compound Adverb

Compound Noun

Compound Tense

Compound Verb

Exocentric Compound

Rhyming Compound

Root Compound and Synthetic Compound

Suspended Compound

Examples and Observations

"Compounds are not limited to two words, as shown by examples such as bathroom towel-rack and community center finance committee. Indeed, the process of compounding seems unlimited in English: starting with a word like sailboat, we can easily construct the compound sailboat rigging, from which we can, in turn, create sailboat rigging design, sailboat rigging design training, sailboat rigging design training institute, and so on."(Adrian Akmajian et al., "Linguistics: An Introduction to Language and Communication". MIT Press, 2001)
