Is the word Ester Island compound word?

"Easter Island" is not a compound word.

Here's why:

* Compound words are formed by combining two or more separate words. They can be written as one word (e.g., "sunlight"), hyphenated (e.g., "well-being"), or written as separate words (e.g., "high school").

* Easter Island is a proper noun, referring to a specific island. It's not formed by combining two words.

Therefore, it's not a compound word.
