Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with Euripides’ compound nouns and adjectives, composed of nouns or adjectives as members. An overview of such nominal compounds arranged by the formal criterion is given and their structure is described according to morphological rules. The analysis then turns to syntax and semantics issues, their interplay and classification concerns. In attempt to determine the specifics in poetic character of Euripides’ compounds of this type, prior and contemporary literary use is cited for every example and more notable instances of compounds that are found only in Euripides are discussed in the context.
