Compound Nouns in Kannada grammar make use of the potential to combine two or more nouns to form a new noun phrase with a distinct meaning. Kannada, as a Dravidian language, has a rich feature set for compound nouns, which are referred to as “Samastapadagalu” in Kannada. Their formation is governed by syntax, semantics, and morphology of the Kannada language. It provides a nuanced way of expressing complex ideas with brevity, serving a crucial role in Kannada grammar and literature.
