Morphology
The meaning 'a flat, round serving of ground beef' is directly derivable from combining 'beef' (meat from a cow) with 'patty' (a flattened mass of ground meat), so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the compound meaning. This is a literal noun–noun compound following common compositional patterns across languages, making it immediately comprehensible.
Etymology
Beef patty comes from a simple name: beef (the meat) plus patty, an old word for a small flat cake. Picture pressing ground beef into a flat, round cake and frying it, so it means 'a flat, round serving of ground beef' used in burgers.
