First Sister (FS) Principle: All verbal compounds are formed by incorporation of a word in first sister position of the verb. That is, if a noun, adjective, or adverb is an acceptable complement to a verb when it occurs in a sentence, the same noun, adjective, or adverb will be acceptable as a first stem when the verb occurrs in a synthetic compound: ‘He made peace’ → ‘peacemaker’, but ‘*He thought peace’ → ‘*peacethinker’.
- Lieber (2004), a pag.223-224
