Abstract. The article reveals the content of the notion "bahuvrihi", which are widely used in everyday colloquial speech. Possessive composites, or bahuvrihi, are productive exocentric metonymical composites with the main component denoting an integral (pars pro toto). Two-member possessive composites are typical of the German language. The author mentions that the most important characteristics of such words as bahuvrihi are emotional-cynical or rude expressiveness, contemptuous-scornful or playful figurativeness, which are achieved due to the word-formative act semantic complication with the metaphorical and metonymical transfers of collocating stems meanings.
