Answer 2

Answer: Option - D => preposition +noun

Overcoat => preposition + noun.

• Compound words are the words that are formed when two or more words are combined.

• When we combined two or more words then a new word will be created that has an entirely different meaning.

• The word "overcoat" can be split into two words as 'over' and 'coat'.

• The word 'over' is a preposition and the word 'coat' is a noun.
