Is it right sentence, please?

At the time of preposition we just say,

"Thank you fellow classmates"

Here is a little confusion on my mind is 'fellow' is a noun and classmate also a noun. Is it possible to use 2 nouns beside each other?

Thanks, teachers.

Hi mizansinha007, mizansinha007 "Thank you fellow classmates" In this case, the word fellow is being used as an adjective to modify the noun classmates . Sometimes this can be confusing when nouns are used as adjectives. Here are some more examples: " laundry soap" " dog food" " picnic basket" Laundry, dog and picinic are being used as adjectives here to modify the nouns they precede.
