What is the diminutive form of the following words in Spanish?

a. El hermano → ......... b. La amiga → ......... c. La abuela → .........

Answer:

a) el hermanito b) la amigita c) la abuelita

Explanation:

In Spanish, diminutives are formed by adding certain suffixes to noun root words. The diminutive form is used to convey a sense of smallness or endearment. Let's see the diminutive forms of the words in the question:

a. El hermano → El hermanito (The brother → The little brother)
b. La amiga → La amigita (The female friend → The little female friend)
c. La abuela → La abuelita (The grandmother → The little grandmother)

By adding the suffixes "-ito" or "-ita", we create the diminutive forms of these Spanish words. This playful use of grammar adds a touch of affection and intimacy to the language.
