Sažetak
This final paper deals with noun-noun compounds in English and German and its goal is to present the differences and similarities of noun-noun compounds in these two languages. English compounds are divided into four groups: based on the type of each constituent (noun-deverbal noun, noun-noun, noun-genitive -s–noun), according to their semantic properties (exocentric and endocentric), following with a classification based on the relationship between the two constituents (primary and synthetic) and lastly how Grimm classifies compounds (genuine and artificial). After this, as a comparison to English compounds, the situation in German is presented and also some problems which have occurred are listed. Lastly, blends and neoclassical compounds are mentioned because they are thought to be borderline cases of compounding.
