    When is it correct to use compound words in english? In Swedish you can do compound words for anything at will. In English “flagpole” is its own word but “dirt farmer” isn’t.

        True there is no consistent rule, but generally the more a phrase is used, the more often it becomes a compound word

          Welp! Better go convince some more people to become destitute agricultural workers so that the dictionary is less confusing to us Scandinavians!
