CONCEPT - COMPOUND WORDS

What do you understand by 'compound words'?
Compounds are very common in language, especially in English. Going by its definition, a compound is a combination of two or more words with their independent meaning. When these words with their independent meaning are combined to form one new word, it is called a compound and it has its own meaning. For instance,

Star + Fish = Starfish         Home + Work = Homework        Sales + Man = Salesman

Watch the short video below to understand what a compound is.
