homemade or home made or home-made <-----Edited to add the text in question to the post-----> Hello, I've found each of the spellings in the headline and I'm not sure if all of them are correct or there is one use more frequently than the others?

But, since you explained that "-wife" merely means "woman," I think "housewife" is a perfectly fine word to describe any woman who does most (if not all) of the housework, whether she's married, has a partner, lives with him or not.

Large stores become "department stores", because they are effectively a number of shops ...

I don't think the noun is modifying the past participle, so I don't think it is a good example. There is a standard expression "this (cake etc) is home-made". We often think of "home-made" as a ...
You are welcomed to join us whenever you want. This isn't grammatical. This is an optional class and everyone from both shifts are welcomed. I suppose this is grammatical but it's unlikely.
