Best Answer

Yes.

A compound word is made when you put two regular words together. In this case, "basket" is one word and "ball" is another. Put them together and you get "Basketball."

Don't thank me, thank God.

Yes it is.

Volley + Ball

Even if it is formed into a single word it is still a compound (formed by more than one thing).

Another example of this type of word is "weekend".

No, "ball" is a noun, modified by the adjective "Golf." They are two separate words.
