Answer:

The suffix -ito or -ita can mean small.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we wanted to find the right word to express that something is small in Spanish, we could do it with the word CHIQUITO or CHIQUITA if it were feminine.

This suffix can also be added to other words to indicate smallness.

For example if we wanted to say that an ANIMAL is small, we would say that it is an ANIMALITO.

The same can happen with objects, for example a small AUTO can be an AUTITO.

The word CHIQUITO is synonymous with PEQUEÑO.
