GUIDE FOR COMPOUNDING WORDS A

compound is two or more words joined either with a hyphen (right-of-way) or without a hyphen (cupboard). The purpose of a compound is to express a thought or idea more clearly and precisely than might be expressed if the words were not joined. Some words are joined simply because they have been so commonly and regularly used in succession that through custom or usage they have become one word (racehorse) even though the compound word is not necessarily any clearer in meaning than when the two words are written separately.

The hyphen, when used in a compound word, is a mark of punctuation. Its purpose is to join the parts of the compound but also to separate the parts for better readability, clearer understanding, and correct pronunciation. In general, the hyphen should be omitted unless it fulfills one of these purposes. Several hundred compound words are included in the 25,000 words contained in this dictionary. If the word is not given, use the following rules as a guide. Rules for the hyphenation of prefixes and suffixes also are given. 1. General Rule. In general, avoid joining two or more words unless the compounding aids understanding or readability. If the words appear in regular order and if the first word serves principally as an adjective to describe the second word, the words usually are not joined.

book value

day laborer

brick house

fellow citizen

printing press real estate

2. Nouns. Many nouns are formed by two other nouns (including gerunds) and are written as one word either by custom or repeated usage or because by being written as one word they better express a single thought or unit idea than by not being connected.

bathroom bookstore dressmaker

footnote laughingstock locksmith

308

southwest

workingman

workman

3. Improvised Compounds. Many words such as a verb and an adverb are joined to express either a literal or a nonliteral (figurative) thought. Use a hyphen for most threeword combinations or in a compound where meaning might

be confused. Otherwise write solid. holdup afterglow loudspeaker bloodthirsty overestimate blowout showdown gentleman windfall giveaway

but: cut-in father-in-law right-of-way up-to-date well-to-do

4. Double or Triple Letters. Use a doubling vowels or tripling consonants.

Any, every, no, some. Write as one word any, every, and some when combined with body, thing, and where. When one is the second element, and the meaning is a single or particular person or thing, write as two words. No one is always two words. 5.

Modifiers (Adjectives). Words, or abbreviaand words, combined to form a unit modifier should be hyphened when they precede the word modified, particularly if one element is a present or past participle. However, see 7.

11. Number and Possessive. Omit the hyphen when a modifier consists of a possessive preceded by a numeral. 3 hours' pay 1 week's trial
