Morphology

national + socialist + German + Workers' + party

The constituent words transparently indicate a German political party with nationalist and socialist/worker-oriented elements (national + socialist + German + workers' + party), so a learner can infer a party ideology and national origin. However, this is a fixed historical proper name with specific ideological connotations and a well-known identity (the Nazi Party) that cannot be fully derived from the parts without socio-historical knowledge, so it is only partially predictable.

Etymology

National Socialist German Workers' Party is a name that puts together National, Socialist, German, and Workers' to show the party said it stood for the nation and for workers. This long name became the official name of Hitler's political party, so today it refers to the group that took power in Germany and ruled as a 'dictatorship' from 1933 to 1945 and is often called the 'Nazi Party'.
