The word "wind" is often used in compound words, but these are usually more descriptive of the wind itself, like:
* Headwind: A wind blowing against the direction of travel.
* Tailwind: A wind blowing in the direction of travel.
* Sidewind: A wind blowing from the side.
However, you might encounter words where "wind" is part of a longer word with a prefix, like:
* Windmill: A machine that uses wind power to generate energy.
* Windproof: Resistant to wind.
* Windsock: A cone-shaped device used to show wind direction.
In these cases, the prefixes are not directly attached to the word "wind" but rather modify the whole compound word.
