what are the defination of compound noun ?
Answers
Explanation:
compound noun is formed when two words are combined to make a completely new word. This means that the meaning of the new word must be significantly different than either of its parts individually.
For example, a hot dog (or hotdog) - i.e., a type of sausage typically eaten on a bun - may be hot, but it's certainly not a dog. The combination of these two words means something entirely different than the mere combination of the adjective "hot" and the noun "dog," which would refer to an overheated, panting canine. Observe the difference below:
I want to eat a hot dog when we go to the county fair.
The hot dog was grateful to find a shady spot for a nap.
The first sentence uses "hot dog" as a compound word, but the second does not. The meaning is quite different in each sentence, and English speakers should have no trouble telling the difference between pets and food!
