Example compound neuter nouns:

  • airport
  • bathtub
  • camp fire
  • downtown
  • egg shell
  • friendship
  • Great Wall of China
  • house boat
  • ice cream
  • jack-in-the-pulpit
  • Kickball
  • lunchbox
  • Mount Rushmore
  • nightlight
  • one hundred
  • peanut butter
  • question mark
  • raincoat
  • school bus
  • t-shirt (or tee-shirt)
  • underwear
