Morphology
The meaning is directly compositional: 'lawn' specifies the domain (area of grass) and 'tool' denotes an implement, so a learner who knows both words can infer it is an implement for lawn care. This noun–noun compound follows a common, cross-linguistic compounding pattern in English, making the phrase immediately understandable to a B1 learner.
Etymology
Lawn tool The name lawn tool comes from the simple image of a lawn, an area of short 'grass' in a 'yard', and a tool, an object you use to work. So a lawn tool is any tool used to look after the grass, like a mower, rake or trimmer.
