Some phrases are so well-known, you don't need to say the whole thing to be understood. E.g., you can say "birds of a feather" without saying "flock together." -“When life hands you lemons…” -“Great minds…” -“When in Rome…” Such partial phrases are called 'anapodotons.'

Now Rachel has admitted that the economy is stuck, saying “our economy isn’t broken, but it does feel stuck." Maybe she can also figure out that her own tax hikes are to blame for getting it stuck. Reversing her NI increase would provide a big boost to business confidence.

Usually, when a compound word does include a verb, it is Noun + Verb. ‘firefighters’ not ‘fighterfires’ ‘haircut’ not ‘cuthair’ ‘sunrise’ not ‘risesun’ Cutthroat compounds are relatively rare, with fewer than 900 having this Verb + Direct Object Noun construction.

A ‘boathouse’ is a type of house. A ‘houseboat’ is a type of boat. This is a common pattern in English. The first noun MODIFIES the second word. The second noun is what it IS. 🧵⬇️
