Hi Everyone.
I decided to open up a topic so we can talk about diminutives, to learn ways to form them and help people who have doubts about them.
For those of you who are beginners let me tell you that diminutives are suffixes that indicate small size, youth, affection or contempt, the best example I can give you in english is the -Y in Doggy.
The most common suffix is -ito/-ita, let's keep the doggy example which in spanish would be "Perrito"!
But is not as easy , we can find many other ways to form a diminutive, we can use cito/-cita ( Pobrecito/Pobrecita)
There is so much more but I don't want to give it all in one go, I think it's quite an important and interesting topic.. you will defenetly hear people using diminutives when talking all around the Spanish speaking world!
So let's talk about this .. do you have any doubts? do you use them a lot?
I say we make a big list of all the diminutives we can think of and how we can use them!
