Also, if you have "bad good" (bad act of good) or "good bad" (good act of bad) it both means negative.
Silly English language.

@TheGameMaster1231: You take the opposite - e.g. fat changes to thin, so sleepmore would be awakeless.
@TVflea: It's a bit obvious...
Since you are taking the opposite of both words in the compound word, that means it's a double negative which cancels out, so nothing's changed.

Reversing is WAY different than 'Opposite'
