چکیده
In this study, we examine exocentric compounds in Berom; a minority Niger-Congo language that is spoken parts of central Nigeria and describe the structural semantic properties N-V compounds. Basically, study designed to achieve three aims: contribute documentation Berom, provide classification semantics Contrary nominalization process defining lexical class languages, show Berom compounding, verbal adjectival are also attested.
