In the Belarusian language, diminutives are special forms of nouns that make them sound smaller, cuter, or more affectionate. It's like how we say 'kitty' instead of 'cat' in English. Diminutives can show love, endearment, or even make something sound less serious.
When you use a diminutive, you're adding a special feeling to the word. It's like giving the word a hug! Diminutives can make the noun sound more personal or less formal. People often use them when talking to children or about things they love.
