This short course explores one of the most productive word-formation processes in English — compounding — the process of combining two or more free morphemes to create a new lexical item with a unified meaning.
By the end of the course, you, the learners will be able to:
- Identify and classify compounds by grammatical category and semantic headedness
- Identify nouns in digital English
- Analyze the internal structure of complex compounds
- Apply compounding rules productively in context
