Morphology

back-butt = back + butt (transparent) = back + butt

A straightforward compound whose meaning is directly recoverable from 'back' + 'butt' for average learners.

Etymology

Back-butt combines back ('the rear of the body') and butt ('the bottom'), so it literally names the small area where the lower back meets the buttocks.
