Hi Feebs,

There is no context. I just made it up.

Actually, it sounds made up. There is no standard compound noun village man. But if you are writing a fanciful story you might use something like that. And there may be a context where you might need such a construction. Maybe you want to contrast a village man with a city man, for example. It's understandable. Generally speaking, though, it's best to stick to com
