We used to have compound words.
Back in the 60’s and 70’s.
But things kept evolving, and getting faster and fancier.
Now we have parasynthetic words.
Doghouse, paratrooper, oversized, packsaddle, underpaid, waterboy
Parasynthetic words.
Do not help your grandchildren with their homework unless you memorize all the new terms.
Prealgebra, biochemistry, parasynthetic.
What was wrong with compound words?
At least we had heard of it before.
Parasynthetic words now.
Just one more thing….
