 3. Discussion
The words:
1. Goldfish
2. Seahorse
3. Starfish
4. Jellyfish
5. Seashell
are called Compound Words which mean,
the combination of two different words.

Everybody read the definition of compound

word. Compound Word is the combination of two different
words.
And those words are the 1st and 2nd word of a
compound word. Take note that if the 1st and 2nd word
of a compound word is being separated the first letter
of each word should be written in a capital letter
because they are noun and they differ from each other
but when you already put the 2 words together only the
first letter should be written in a capital letter because
they are now a compound word and they are now the
same.
But when a compound word/s is use in a sentence the
first letter of a compound word should be written in a
small letter.

We can also use the operation, Addition in getting its

compound word.
1st Word Addition 2nd Word Compound
word
1.Gold + Fish Goldfish
2.Jelly + Fish Jellyfish
3.Sea + Horse Seahorse
4.Star + Fish Starfish
5.Sea + Shell Seashell
