As seen above,derivation is a useful way to understand how a word can be developed into another word with an affix,which carries an additional meaning.On the other hand,compound nouns consist of two or more independent morphemes.They are divided into native and Sino-Korean conpound nouns.However,I advice you to learn so many phrases or words to really understand the meaning og the word or you can divide the syllables into two or more and translate it to English to be able to understand.
