In the second example I could say "bodrum" with the meaning of basement can't be derived from "hippodromos", because meaning of the second one isn't connected with basement:
Gr. hippódromos. f. hīppos horse + drómos race.
But.... In macedonian the corresponding word "podrum" is obtained by the words "pod"-"under" + "drum"-"street", "road", or simply "under the level of street".
