By your definition then, the words season and bamboo would be compound words, but they aren't. Sea + son = season or bam + boo = bamboo. The thing to remember is even though there may be two separate words within the word, if the original word was already one word, then it isn't a compound. season...is a word without separation of sea and son. Bamboo is a word without separation of bam and boo.

A compound word is one that is made of two or more separate words. The way to tell is to divide the word and see if you get real words when you divide it. There is no way to divide "there" and get two words that are real words. You can get the word "here" but then the only thing left is "T" and that's not a word. This makes there NOT a compound word.
