A compound noun is a noun that is composed of two or more parts, so that each component has an independent meaning but refers to a whole person or thing as a whole. Compound nouns are divided into two types, 1- present and 2-non-present, in terms of relation to the root of the verb. Composite nouns, on the other hand, are divided into three categories: inverted, direct, and intermediate in terms of depth of construction. In this research, which has been done by descriptive-analytical method, 5 types of inactive compound nouns have been identified. Non-current compound nouns are directly related, passive compound nouns are dependent, passive compound nouns are homonymous, emphatic and connective compound nouns, and Arabic compound nouns are among these 5 types. All these types of compound names have been used by the lost lamb of Rai Houshang Golshiri.
