Summary: | Compounds are the most widespread morphological products in Danish as well as in other Germanic languages. Compounding is also the simplest morphological process. However, although a great number of studies have been carried out, there is no consensus among scholars working in the field regarding the definition of compounding, as well as the classification of compounds. In the first part of the paper, various definitions of compounding are discussed, which allows me to demonstrate and analyze the different approaches that underline them. Subsequently, my own view on compounding is discussed. In the second part of the article, both the most widespread and the lesser known classifications of compounds are presented. In their light, my own classification is proposed in order to include a particular category of compounds that do not fit well into either of the already existing classifications. These compounds can neither be classified as determinative nor exocentric and, as argued in the present article, they should be perceived as a separate category. I propose to name them quasiendocentric compounds. |
