Yes, "nothing" is a compound word formed by combining "no" and "thing." It conveys the idea of the absence of anything. In English, compound words are created by merging two or more words to create a new meaning, and "nothing" fits this definition.

Why isnt bracelet a compound word?

because a compound word is not when ANY two words are put together, but when both words combined... each having something to do with the full word. Like necklace would be a compound word because it is a LACE that goes around your NECK, and both words have something to do with the full word, necklace. Brace has nothing to do with a wrist unless you have on for your wrist, but this is a piece of jewelry. and let has nothing to do with your wrist whatsoever... so that is why bracelet is not a compound word. Plz reply! :)

Is 'manage' a compound word?

Yes, "manage" is not a compound word. A compound word is formed by combining two or more words to create a new word with a distinct meaning. In the case of "manage," it is a standalone word derived from the Latin word "manus," meaning "hand," and the suffix "-age," indicating an action or process.


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.
