COMPOUND WORDS - 1

When two words are used together to do the work of a noun or an Adjective, they are known as COMPOUND WORDS. जेव्हा नाम किंवा विशेषण म्हणुन उपयोग करण्यासाठी दोन शब्द एकत्र वापरले जातात, तेव्हा त्यांना COMPOUND WORDS(सामासिक/संयुक्त शब्द) असे म्हणतात.

A new meaningful word formed by joining two or more such words is called Compound words. असे दोन किंवा अधिक शब्द जोडून तयार झालेल्या नवीन अर्थपूर्ण शब्दाला सामासिक/संयुक्त शब्द असे म्हणतात. 

HOW TO FORM COMPOUND WORDS :-

Compound words can be formed by joining two words.

Sometimes, the two words are separate,  sometimes they are treated as one.

In some cases, we may need to put a hypen (-) between the two words.

Generally,  if the Compound word is one which is used very often, then the two words are treated as one.

Examples :-

1. feed + back = feedback

2. tea + set = tea set

3. grand + father = grandfather 

4. washing + machine = washing machine

5. break + fast = breakfast

6. long + jump = long jump

7. seat + belt = seat belt

8. walking + stick = walking stick

9. foot + ball = football

10. every + thing = everything

11. every + day = everyday

12. bath + room = bathroom

13. birth + day = birthday

14. band + aid = band-aid
