Morphology

broadcasting + studio

The meaning 'a room or building equipped for radio or television broadcasts' is directly and compositionally derived from 'broadcasting' (sending audio/video to a large audience) + 'studio' (facility where films/TV/radio are produced). This noun-noun combination follows a transparent, common pattern found across languages, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents should readily infer the MWE's meaning.

Etymology

Broadcasting studio comes from a simple picture: the verb broadcast once meant to 'cast seeds' across a field, so it brings to mind sending something out widely, and studio is a room where people make work. So a broadcasting studio is the room where sound or video is made to be sent out to many people.
