The simple nouns are those that refer to things, people or animals. These are also called common or improper nouns. In other words, simple nouns designate sets of entities like House, dog, land, Sun, Moon, etc.
The Compound nouns, on the other hand, on those that are formed from two concepts to constitute a new concept such as:remove + cork; open + cans, short + feathers.
Simple nouns cannot be decomposed or divided in two since, doing so, the word would lose its meaning. Compound nouns are recognizable since, if the two words are separated, each part would continue with its own meaning.
