Yes, "carpet" is a compound word. A compound word is formed by combining two separate words to create a new word with its own meaning. In this case, "carpet" is made up of "car" and "pet," which together refer to a type of flooring material.

Is the word puppet a compound word?

No. It is not a compound word. Puppet can be used with other words to form compound nouns like "puppet show" or "puppet regime" but puppet itself is NOT a compound word. A compound word must be two words put together that form a new word/definition, but those words are somewhat related to the new definition, like "playground". "Pup" and "pet" have nothing to do with the definition of "puppet". Similar non-compound words would be "carpet" or "office". Just because you can find two words within a word, does NOT make it a compound word.
