In our English study,there are some compound(复合)words,such as housewife, granddaughter and so on. Homesick is a compound word made up of home and sick. You know what each word means on its own,of course. But think about what the words mean when they are used together. Homesick means SICK FOR HOME.
Now think for a minute about SEASICK. If you change the word home in the definition (释义)to the word sea,would the definition fit SEASICK? Does seasick mean SICK FOR SEA? It means something quite different. Seasick means SICK BY THE MOVEMENT ON THE SEA. When you are homesick, the only place you want to be is at home. But when you are seasick,the last place you want to be is a sea.
Have you ever heard of someone being heartsick? It doesn't mean that something is wrong with a person's heart. People are heartsick when they are hurt deep inside and they feel as if their hearts are broken.
But,on the other hand,we have such compound words as filmmaker and handbag. It's easy for us to write definitions for them and knowing something like this is really helpful in our English study.
