Morphology
The phrase 'dollar volume' is a straightforward nominal composition where 'dollar' specifies the unit and 'volume' denotes an amount, so the meaning 'total value measured in US dollars' can be directly derived from the parts. This currency + quantity pattern is common cross-linguistically and follows regular English modifier+noun semantics, making it immediately understandable to a B1 learner who knows both words.
Etymology
Dollar volume comes from a simple image: dollar means money and volume means the amount or size of something, like a big box full of goods. So, dollar volume refers to the 'total value' of sales or trades measured in dollars.
