The meaning 'a large, flat wooden board used for kneading dough' is directly derivable from combining 'knead' (to press and stretch dough) with 'board' (a flat piece of material), so a B1 learner who knows both words would understand the referent. This simple noun+noun compositional pattern is cross-linguistically common and follows transparent English compounding, making it immediately comprehensible.
