This process of compounding is a fundamental aspect of Arabic morphology and plays a crucial role in lexical expansion and semantic enrichment.

Arabic compounds denote significant groupings of words that can construct either a full sentence or an incomplete expression referred to as a phrase. The construction of compounds in Arabic follows certain structural and semantic principles, reflecting the unique features of the language. Arabic compound formation exemplifies the intricate interplay between morphology, semantics, and syntax within the Arabic language, making it a rich area of study in linguistics.
