%X ¨¡mre ita compounds in the  gveda are considered to be a type of coordinative nominal constructions, closely related to dvandva compounds. This article investigates ¨¡mre ita compounds against the background of other coordinative nominal constructions from  gveda 1.1¨C1.50 which were analysed and compared with their parallel attestations in other ma  alas of the  gveda. The first fifty hymns of the  gveda form an organic whole: they belong to the middle period in the  gvedic chronology and address a rich variety of deities, providing a substantial amount of material to address the typological problems of ¨¡mre ita compounds. The article overviews the problems related to the typology of ¨¡mre ita compounds, their analysis in the  gvedapadap¨¡ ha and the A  ¨¡dhy¨¡y¨©, examines all ¨¡mre ita compounds attested in  gveda 1.1¨C1.50 and compares them with dvandva compounds, noting their interrelations, similarities and differences and consequently, identifies some of their typological features.
