A Compound word full of words
$begingroup$
This compound word is full of words.
You might say it is made up of 2 words and you would be right. But the
first of the 2 words is also a compound word!
You might say it is made up of 3 consecutive words ( I just said that)
You might say it is made up of 4 consecutive words and again you will
be right.
Then you will say that the first and the last of those 4 words when
put together is an english surname. Heard in a famous sitcom.
Any guess?
