eensy-weensy
Almost impossibly small
Eensy-weensy is a playful reduplication meaning extremely small, used especially when speaking to or around children: an eensy-weensy spider, just an eensy-weensy bit more.
The word emphasizes tininess through its drawn-out, childish sound.
Variants include itsy-bitsy and teeny-weeny.
