Compound Words Page
A compound word is a word made of two
smaller
words that are put together.
For example: butter + fly = butterfly!
Sometimes the new word's meaning is
very
different from what the other two words
mean.
Have you ever seen a stick of butter
that
flies or a fly made of butter? Of course
not! You have to remember the meanings
of
these compound words. |

|
| Sometimes you can use the meanings of the
little words to predict, or figure out the
meaning of the compound word. Here is an
example: Dog + House = Doghouse! A doghouse is a house for a dog! |
