There are common word combination like motel, brunch and so on. But there are also some funny word combination, such as "frenemy". It means friend+enemy It is a funny combination. Do you know some of these words?

Many years ago there used to be an actress called Hilda Baker. She used to mix her words up which was quite hilarious and quite a talent. One such saying was her calling someone something horrible and would call them "a knock kneed knackered old nosebag"!

Perhaps you will think out more examples after some time. After all, English is your native language

Yes, I have heard quite a few of them. Some are actually very new words in our English dictionary here in the USA.

@rebelann In fact I already regard the word brunch and motel as the standard words.

Most of these words you speak of are started by people creating them and then the words become popular @youless the word "brunch" has been used here in the USA for many decades.
