Compound words in English are formed by combining two or more morphemes, each of which contributes to the overall meaning of the word. These constituent parts can be free morphemes, which can stand independently as words, or bound morphemes, which cannot stand alone. By identifying the internal structure of compound words, one can better understand how meaning is constructed in the English language. The word “everything” consists of two free morphemes: “every” and “thing.” The morpheme “every” functions as a determiner meaning ‘all’ or ‘each,’ while “thing” refers to an object or entity. Together, they form a compound pronoun that signifies all things collectively, without exception. The compound “tape-recorder” is made up of two constituents: “tape” and “recorder.” Both are free morphemes.
