<h3>What are compound nouns?</h3>
A compound noun is a noun formed by two words. They can be made of two nouns, an adjective and a noun, or a verb and a noun. They can also be categorized as open, closed, or hyphenated.
An open compound noun is written as two separated words. That is the case with "baby sitters," "bus top," and "rain shower" in the passage.
A closed compound noun is written as one word. That is the case with "raindrops" and "newspapers" in the passage.
A hyphenated compound noun is formed by two words joined by a hyphen. That is the case with "tractor-trailer" in the passage.
