Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2022 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: PhD student, University of Babylon (College of Education for Human Sciences), course: English, language: English, abstract: The current study is a phonological study of compound nouns in two selected videos on YouTube. The analyses investigated and focused on two phonological aspects "stress and syllable", because knowing the placement of stress on compound nous is important since it can cause a change in meaning. The analyses showed different types of compound nouns that belong to categories. It was also found that most compound nouns had primary stress. Secondary stress was also found in compounds that had two or three syllables. Most compound nouns were either disyllabic which were the most frequently used, or polysyllabic that had secondary stress. The types of compound nouns appeared in the data were (N-N compound, Adj.-N compound, N-Pre. compound, Pre-N compound, x-man compound, and V-N compound). Keywords: general views about compounds, phonological and morphological perspectives of compounds, classification of compounds, and suprasegmental phonology.
