I think your question might be a little clearer if you gave us some examples of the usage you're asking about.




The way I interpreted the question: are there any rules governing the addition of affixes (mainly 'un'. This is a reference to 'newspeak', if you've read 1984 by George Orwell you'll understand, if you haven't, read it) to random words in common usage? I personally can't think of any that are used in real life, but the main one I remember from 1984 is 'ungood'.

So zmjezhd, she is talking about affixes, not compound words.
