2- The stress falls on the second syllable in two syllable verbs.

T gives each group a pile of words and are asked the following Qs What category of these words belong
to? (nouns) Do these single words have a meaning? (Yes , they do ) After matching words with their parts,
T asks them again how many words are their in the board now?What do we call these words? why?
(compound nouns, they consist of two parts) They may say: combined word/ complex/ compound.
