It is a construct of a noun and a verb, where each can stand alone, or are a word together, with the same meaning.
Examples that work are: - Sun set - Car wash
Although what doesn't work is: jay walk, bird bath, etc.
Does anyone know the name for this type of word? What other examples can you come up with?
